A most loving couple were Uncle Bob and his wife,
Neither of them too far from the afterlife,
Making the most of the days that remain,
With bodies that are willing, but lacking the brain.
As the years passed, their senses diminished,
Between the ears and the mind, the sparks were finished,
Which explains why they took the downtown commute,
In matching tiny leopard-skin bathing suits.
Uncle Bob was excited for the big night to come,
Couldn’t half help himself from grabbin’ her bum,
Packed in her bag were all the right tools,
As his mind wandered off he constantly drooled.
An invitation you see, he received on the phone,
For couples like you, so don’t come alone,
There will be a big stage with various acts,
Exploits that the likes of you will attract.
Unfortunately Bob got the idea all wrong,
And shouldn’t have purchased his Speedo thong,
For the invite was for a concert – a “Singer for Pensioners”
And not what he thought – for “Swinger Conventioners”!
