Got myself a cryin', talkin', sleepin', walkin', livin' doll You are the dancing queen, young and sweet, only seventeen It's fun to stay at the YMCA, It's fun to stay at the YMCA The minute you walked in the joint, I could see you were a man of distinction Buddy, you're a boy, make a big noise, playing in the street, gonna be a big man someday Moon river, wider than a mile I'm crossing you in style some day People try to put us d-down (Talkin' 'bout my generation) Small and white Clean and bright You look happy to meet me I'm singin' in the rain Just singin' in the rain What a glorious feeling 8 Read a Pam Ayres Poem THEY SHOULD HAVE ASKED MY HUSBAND You know, this world is complicated and imperfect and oppressed, And it’s not hard to feel timid, apprehensive and depressed, It seems that all around us, tides of questions ebb and flow, And people want solutions, but they don’t know where to go. Opinions abound but who is wrong and who is right? People need a prophet, a diffuser of the light, Someone they can turn to as the crises rage and swirl, Someone with the remedy, the wisdom, the pearl… Well they should have asked my husband, he’s a man who likes his say, With his thoughts on immigration, teenage mums, Theresa May, The future of the monarchy, the latest Brexit shocks, The wait for hip replacements, and the rubbish on the box. Yes, they should have asked my husband, he can sort out any mess, He can rejuvenate the railways, he can cure the NHS, So any little niggle, anything you want to know, Just run it past my husband, wind him up and let him go. Congestion on the motorways, free holidays for thugs, The damage to the ozone layer, refugees, drugs, These may defeat the brain of any politician bloke, But present it to my husband, he will solve it at a stroke. He’ll clarify the situation, he will make it crystal clear, You’ll feel the glazing of your eyeballs and the bending of your ear, You may lose the will to live, you may feel your shoulders slump, When he talks about the President, Mr. Donald Trump. Upon these areas he brings his intellect to shine, In a great compelling voice that’s twice as loud as yours or mine, I often wonder what it must be like to be so strong, Infallible, articulate, self-confident and wrong. When it comes to tolerance, he hasn’t got a lot, Joy riders should be guillotined, and muggers should be shot, The sound of his own voice becomes like music to his ears, And he hasn’t got an inkling that he’s boring us to tears. 9 My friends don’t call so often, they have busy lives I know, But it’s not every day you want to hear a windbag suck and blow, Google? Safari? On them we never call, Why bother with computers…when my husband knows it all. 10 Maze Write the colour the word is RED BLUE YELLOW PURPLE WHITE BLACK BROWN GREEN YELLOW 11 Quiz Answers Finish the saying As bold as __brass_____________ As cold as ___ice____________ As hard as ___nails____________ As black as ___coal____________ Questions Which Jamaican runner is an 11-time world champion and holds the record for 100 and 200 metre races?

Got myself a cryin', talkin', sleepin', walkin', livin' doll. Got to do my best to please her just 'cause she's a livin' doll You are the dancing queen, young and sweet, only seventeen. Dancing queen, feel the beat from the tambourine, oh yeah It's fun to stay at the YMCA, It's fun to stay at the YMCA. They have everything for you men to enjoy. You can hang out with all the boys The minute you walked in the joint, I could see you were a man of distinction, A real big spender Buddy, you're a boy, make a big noise, Playing in the street, gonna be a big man someday You got mud on your face, you big disgrace, Kicking your can all over the place, singin' Moon river, wider than a mile I'm crossing you in style some day Oh, dream maker, you heart breaker Wherever you're goin', I'm goin' your way People try to put us d-down (Talkin' 'bout my generation) Just because we get around (Talkin' 'bout my generation) Small and white Clean and bright You look happy to meet me Blossom of snow May you bloom and grow Bloom and grow forever I'm singin' in the rain Just singin' in the rain What a glorious feeling I'm happy again.
