The Morning Grouch.

Posted on by Denis Murphy

The morning grouch

Early to bed and early to rise

Makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise

Or so they say, I don’t agree

This early morning style is not for me

Early morning people drive me mad

I really think they are so sad

It just isn’t natural to be that happy

To be chirpy and cheerful before my first cup of coffee!

The early bird is first in the line

Well if you like worms that’s just fine

Not for me I’ll give it a pass

The early bird can kiss my a##
