Four Fringe Days...

Cobblestones
And raining hard
Mars bars sunk in vats of lard
Kitch rake girls and 'topman' men
I won’t go up to the Fringe again.

More southern tongues than Scottish drawl
Natives out in heels: and fall
Everything’s five stars,  buggar it give ‘em ten!
I won’t go up to the Fringe again

Stage make-up in 2 o’clock stark
With all the leaflets, we could build an ark.
‘There’s too many hills” Fuck off then!
I won’t go up to the Fringe again.

Beers outside in sleet and snow
Shit show, shit show, shit show, shit show.
English money’s looked at like Yen
I won’t go up to the Fringe again

Four hours on tracks, I laughed to bits
On the Royal Mile, acting like twits
Rich Fulcher had us all in fits
Australian drag queens showed us their tits
He had tape on his face and oven mits
Kristen as a whoopee cushion and fully commits
Carrying on dancing when we should have called it quits
Dared to kiss: and twenty one hits!
Champagne, and cupcakes sprinkled in glitz
Airbeds, crepes and Gaelic tidbits

Turning twenty one, nowhere near 'on me sen'
 I might go up to the Fringe again…
