Lying To My Kids

When I’m rustling in the car
For my sly chocolate bar,
They say, “What’s that mum?”
I lie: “Nothing!”

When my head’s in the fridge
Taking a wee swig
They say, “What’s that mum?”
I lie: “Nothing!”

When I’m sobbing at the stove
Cos the day’s brought me low
They say, “What’s up, mum?”
I trill, “Nothing!”

When I put them to bed
They say “Do you love 
A thing more than us, mum?”
Lies end: “Nothing.”
