No' Kate
Kate McChisolm
The besom.
She's just new here
A year...
No, mibbee less
Less, yes
Hardly there
Fae elsewhere
And a'ready
Got Freddie
My steady.
Freddie and me
Since school, see
We were a pair.
's'no fair.
Her hair dyed
Peroxide
Just looked
An' Freddie was hooked
Line and sinker,
The stinker.
See if I care
I'm free as air...
But spare.
