I'm horrified!

Yes, I really am,

You see, I overfilled the bath again,

I said, "It wasn't my fault!"

When the phone started ringing,

I forgot the tap was running,

My stupid bath!

It was the bath's fault that it didn't

turn the taps off properly;

It is the bath's fault there is a swimming pool

all over my bathroom floor,

But no!

The bath isn't human with arms,

So, I can't blame it,

Oh dear,

That means I am to blame;

I'm horrified at my stupid bath!!

I overfilled the bath,

And I only have myself to blame;

I'm never getting a bath again,

I'd rather smell!
