A Husband

I'm looking for a husband, you know the sort of chap
The kind of guy who copes with things and never has a flap
The one who fixes cars and bikes and often mows the lawn
Takes the kids on Sunday hikes while I with hammock yawn

I'm looking for a husband, you know the sort of bloke
Who listens to the things I say and laughs out when I joke
He'll do the Sunday B B Q and carves the Sunday roast
Then gives me a foot massage, that's the thing I like the most

I'm looking for a husband dependable and true
Who likes to have discussions but never will argue
Can sit in friendly silence, and never has to babble
Will make and pour the tea for me and lets me win at scrabble

I'm looking for a husband; I know they're pretty rare
The kind who opens doors for me and lets me have his chair
And earns enough at his travail so we're debt and mortgage free
But doesn't put his work ahead of caring about me

He took the red card quietly and then he left the field
And so the French footballers succumbed and had to yield

Another icon in the news and of the TV screen
Was cavorting in the water in another series scene
Making up a programme to bring to every home
The dangerous and deadly animals that roam
Upon the planet, in the sea, along that great big reef
That borders off the Aussie shore when then he came to grief
The deadly Ray that stabbed him directly in his heart
Took a man from all of us, not ready to depart
