I was going to a fancy-dress party dressed as an egg timer
Then another friend said
We'd better start running if we we want to get there on time
I said who ever heard of an egg timer getting to a party on time
And she said it isn't cool is it?
I said no, now set me.
Alright she said and gave me a turn
We better start running she said
I've got calories to burn
So as I was running down a dark alley
A mugger stopped me and asked
Could I take his mugshot
I said it wasn't my cup of tea
And anyway I was hot
He said you're boiling mate, I think you're burning up
In fact I think you have a temperature
I said we are trying to beat the clock
He said let me help you and gave me a
clock round the ear
I said I think you've cracked it
He said I think you're shell shocked
Well this other mugger then appeared
I said oh here's your brother from another mugger
He said no that's just my tea bag friend
I said well I guessed that should do it
I can see how this story will end
No, no he said, I think you've misunderstood
We are on are way to the same party
But we got lost in the neighbourhood
So we ran on together, down blind alleys and
Dead ends
But finally we came to the right cul-de-sac
they like to call daggers bends
I could the point they were trying to make
With a name like that it offends
And the wolf pack were glaring out their windows
Like they were hungry to make friends
Well I fought them tooth and claw
And finally we made it to the front door
Where the part was in full swing
Come on let's go in you said
But I haven't brought anything
Look you got here on time
And that isn't a crime
Not until your egg timer rings
