All hail the ‘lectric dressing gown
no more the shivering skin,
sit down, relax, and pop it on
and plug the beauty in;
With Christmas round the corner
the temperature is down,
so surely everybody needs
a ‘lectric dressing gown.
Go buy one for your grannies
your grandads and your mums,
it’s the perfect Christmas present
for when the season comes;
All hail the ‘lectric dressing gown,
now ‘Buy one get one free’
soft as down and choc-a-block
with electricity.
Don’t worry about the wattage,
the current drawn is low,
just plug that little treasure in
and soon your cheeks will glow;
I’d love a ‘lectric dressing gown
‘twould be a boon to me,
of colds and influenza,
I’m sure I would be free.
Now, of all my bright ideas
I think this one should score,
but I just don’t understand why
no one’s thought of it before;
Hang on! a thought has just occured
that really isn’t fair:
If I’m plugged in there’s no way
I could move out of my chair.
