Time Travellin' Blues (a poem for children)

well I woke up this mornin’

with an ache in my head

when I called for the Doctor

got a Dalek instead

 

I got the blues

got them time travelling blues

Since my tardis left without me

I got them time travelling blues

 

feelin’ sick and tired

time to regenerate

but that mean ol’ Dalek

screams, ‘Exterminate!’

 

 

 

 

I got the blues

got them time travelling blues

Since my tardis left without me

I got them time travelling blues

 

well I got no jelly babies

no sonic that screws

no robot K9

to take away them blues

 

I got the blues

got them time travelling blues

Since my tardis left without me

I got them time travelling blues

Very enjoyable. Daleks are always good fun, at a distance at least.
