Mr Punch Dreams

It's raining inside Mr Punch's head.
His bedroom curtains are red rags.
Judy is somewhere out at sea,
on a ship with hand-shaped sails.

Oh, I do like to be beside the seaside!

There's one wife for you! What a precious darling creature! She go to fetch our child.

Mr Punch fears Jack Ketch's gibbet.
It casts long shadows across his dreams.
The noose is the law's reptilian eye.
