GUEST BOON BOONDOGGLING Boon i if I get it straight Is making something out of ot waste picking up a broken plate And mending it with wire and paste Or taking last years year's motor tags Or buttons off ol mens men's underwear And making pretty laundry bags For church bazaar or county fair lair Boon Boondoggling is the latest fad Which suddenly h has flamed and flashed had Its It's making things youve you've never From things which you have had and smashed You save the egg and oy oyster ter shells The paddles from the pong ping game To make a lovely picture frame Boon Boondoggling Is a cunning art Requiring far more skill than taste One must be smart To fashion out of ot waste One cannot clumsy be as I And doggie any boon to life me Wh When n things need fixing I dont don't try I always leave them to the wife If II I should take a broken plate Lets Let's say of at Haviland or Delft And try to set the pieces straight Id I'd get more glue upon myself Boondoggling Boon was not meant for forme forme me I have e no gift gilt for making things Throughout my life lite I seem to be beThe beThe The chap who's always alway breaking I.
