Clean your spleen
on a Friday.
Run in the sun
on a Friday
Joke with a bloke
on a Friday
But never
on Friday, 13.
Because
Pancakes are flat
on Friday, 13
Dogs are lazy
on Friday, 13
pimples feel greasy
on Friday, 13
And nobody ever wants that!
So when a baby is born on Friday, 13,
people can’t help but wonder:
what will this child do in the world
that will tear us all asunder?
The baby will laugh and grow and weep,
and wish sometimes to fall asleep for
longer than we approve.
But our Culture grows its own disease
It’s Friday, 13 fear If you please,
just call it:
