Bedside Monsters
As we've already told you,
Alfie can't come out to play.
So, cease now calling out his name
and kindly go away.
He's not to be disturbed
as he's already put to bed,
without a proper supper,
without kiss upon his head.
Don't try to change our minds now,
Alfie can't come out to play.
No, he's done nothing wrong,
but he's still punished anyway.
So, go home with your silly games,
and don't put up a fight:
he'll board no helicopter
and fly far away tonight.
As with his best mate Charlie,
Alfie can't come out to play.
realpolitik is diff'rent from
olympic game display
with happy, Sov'reign children
nurtured, cared for, smiling wide...
Yes, this is our final answer:
Alfie cannot come outside.
