Great Pith an’ Moment
By LFM
(Click here to listen to the LFM himself reciting Great Pith An’ Moment!)
To change a bairn’s wee bottom is
Nae horrid thing to do,
For nae deathly thing awaits ye
In amongst the pee an’ poo.
But let this be a warnin’
That ye keep yer lips shut tight
If th’ changin’ o’ th’ bottom’s
When th’ bairn’s acry wi’ spite!
My own wee bairn was cranky
Ere his nappy was awa’,
But then he cried in earnest
An’ with that, let loose a spra’!
He clenched his fists an’ shut his eyes,
An’ screamed the while he pissed.
Within three yards o’ where he lay,
There’s nothin’ that he missed!
But sad to tell the single thing
That got th’ lad’s wee goat
Was when he arched his back an’ pissed
Straight doon his own wee throat!

And he looks so innocent……….
