SONG CHALLENGE WINNER!

Naughty Naturalists Nabbed in Night-Vision Nasty –– A couple at a lakeland holiday park were caught naked on cameras meant to monitor the movements of badgers.  The pair ventured into the snowy woods at the Oasis Village, near Penrith in Cumbria.  Their romp was beamed into every hotel bedroom on a special channel trained on the badger set.  The night-vision camera caught the couple in the early hours of the morning. The woman kept her bobble hat on, reports the News of the World.  The pair stopped when they heard a sound and quickly put their clothes on before being chased by a security guard with a torch.  The identity of the couple has not been revealed.


Me Bobble-Hat's Frozen To Me Head by derrymacash

Me bobble hat's frozen to me head
Me outer clothes are long since shed
And I have lost me maidenhead
To a laddie that won me favour

CHORUS:
Let me come in, the young man cried
Cold blow and the rainy night
Let me come in, the young man cried
I'll never come back again-o

Me father is working down the street
Me mother the bedroom key does keep
But down the stairs I'll shortly creep
And off we'll go together

CHORUS

When at last the woods they gained
She kissed his ruby lips and chin
And then began an act of sin
And the laddie he won her favour

CHORUS

Now you've had your way with me
Laddie won't you marry me
No me love that never can be
So fare thee well forever

CHORUS

And lying naked on the soil
This poor young maiden felt despoiled
And all the lad could do was smile
At the thought of the gift he gave her

CHORUS

But unbeknownst the pair were viewed
By a badger-watching multitude
They found the laddie's manners rude
And found in the lassie's favour

CHORUS

An angry mob surprised the lad
One of them called him a dirty cad
And one of them said that it made him mad
And called him a depraver

CHORUS

And so they put it to a vote
That they would hang him from a rope
Unless there was the slightest hope
That the laddie he would wed her

CHORUS

So the laddie gave consent
And to the church the couple went
The witnesses to the event
Said it was a match to savour

CHORUS

And shortly after they were wed
The lassie's taken to her bed
And bore a child whose hair was red
And the laddie's in a fervour

CHORUS

My hair's black and yours is too
Some other sweep has cleaned your flue
And I've been tricked into wedding you
So fare thee well forever

CHORUS

And so the lassie she did weep
That light was shone on her deceit
And wondered how she'd make ends meet
For herself and her little babe-o

CHORUS

Her father cursed, her mother swore
They beat her thirty-three times o'er
And said she should have thought before
She'd given of her favour

CHORUS

But when they saw the little whelp
Their hearts with joy did quickly melt
And they offered fifty sorts of help
To the daughter and her babe-o

CHORUS
