The breaking news where I do live
Is that the water's flooding out.
My constant flow of cuss words give
A clue of how I feel no doubt.
My family is safe and sound.
I am very thankful for that.
But the ache in my head does pound
On the flood in my habitat.
Thought of need to evacuate
Causes tension to flood my mind.
I hear cries from the kids and mate.
But first a plumber I must find.
Yes, it is breaking news - no joke!
Film at eleven - toilet's broke!
