I never exaggerate, me
I remember one time in the garden
When me mate pushed me out of a tree
I swear it was high as a mountain
But I never exaggerate, me.
I remember one day at the seaside
A tsunami came out of the sea
Lucky that I’m good at surfin’
But I never exaggerate, me.
I remember one day at the sweetshop
They were giving out chocolates for free
I ate so much I was sick on the spot
But I never exaggerate, me.

I remember one day on the footie pitch
This tackle that took off me knee
They managed to sew it back on again
But I never exaggerate, me.
I remember one day in the playground
I found this strange looking key
Then I broke into school at the weekend
But I never exaggerate, me.
I remember one day in the classroom
I think it was quarter to three
A monster crept in and took me away
But I never exaggerate, me.
I remember one day I was out in the park
When my friend he was stung by a bee
His head swelled up to six times its size
But I never exaggerate, me.
No I never, ever, ever exaggerate
Not in a billion years, me.
(C) David J. Mason "Smile"
Goodreads quote of the day for me:
“I laugh at myself.
I don't take myself completely seriously.
I think that's another quality that people
I don't take myself completely seriously.
I think that's another quality that people
have to hold on to... you have to laugh,
especially at yourself.” - Madonna
