TO BE A VOLUNTEER
I saw the call for volunteers and thought I’d do my bit
By taking out food parcels for old biddies and old gits.
I drove my van to Asda and then loaded orders on;
In some were cans of lager so I helped myself to one.
The first old bloke just moaned at me and said that I was late
So when he went back in his house I pissed upon his gate.
The next old skank complained a lot her bread and grapes were crushed
On and on she blathered so I smacked her in the mush.
My last drop-off was gardening – he moaned he’d overpaid
“Chunter, fucking chunter”, so I hit him with his spade.
I don’t expect an MBE for work I’ve done this year
The work itself’s its own reward –
To be a volunteer.

I'm sure that if you haven't already got your MBE it's an oversight and you'll be on the honours list for the new year.
Your actions towards these old codgers were totally justified, and nobody in their right mind would blame you.
But just remember John, you will be old yourself one day. I know it's hard to imagine right now, as it's such a long way off.
