**Poor Janelly!**

\*Every time she’d find a minute  
That’s the time he’d jam it in it!  
Poor Janelly, Poor Janelly!

[Entitled Husband:] Hey You, Janella…!

Poor Janelly, Poor Janelly  
Night and day it’s Poor Janelly  
Make the fire, fix the breakfast  
Bob the neck and make it come fast!

And the weeping from the busting  
He always keeps her sobbing!  
She gyrates round in circles  
Till she’s very, very dizzy  
Still they holler

Keep a-busy Poor Janelly!  
(even when its kinda smelly)

(We can do it, we can do it  
We can help our Poor Janelly!  
We can make teach her touch-and-feely  
There’s nothing to it, nothing really  
She can tie a sash around it  
(or with her fist, she can Just Pound It!)  
When dancing at the ball  
She’ll be more beautiful than all  
With the lovely dance we’ll teach our Poor Janelly!)

Hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry  
Gonna help our Poor Janelly!  
Got no time to dilly-dally  
(So un-strap that, Little Sally…!)

[Helper 1:]  
I can cut it with these scissors!

[Helper 2:]  
And I can do the sewing!

[Girl Helper:]  
Leave the sewing to us women  
Get cricket bats for his rimmin’  
And we’ll make him a lovely mess for  
Poor Janelly…!\*

Seriously, what is the purpose of this? How sad of a life do you have to be to do these drive-by TMI posts?
