My Easter gift to you!

AT EASTERTIDE

Our Lord

Died for you and me,

Nailed to

That blessed and cursèd tree;

I’m late,

It’s almost half-past three,

Must dash –

I’ve got hot cross buns for tea.

It’s Easter, it’s Easter,

A time for eggs and fun!

Easter, O Easter,

God’s dead, have a currant bun!

Easter, it’s Easter,

When Christ rose from the dead,

Easter, O Easter,

Time to varnish the shed!

That day, the sky grew overcast

When Christ the King had breathed his last,

Look in the shed, what’s that, oh blast!

Meant to fix that old Qualcast!

It’s Easter, it’s Easter,

When Christ died for all our sins!

Easter, O Easter,

An extra day before they empty the bins!

Easter, it’s Easter,

When man committed the ultimate crime!

Easter, O Easter,

Get them in – it’s Sunday closing time!

Easter, it’s Easter,

A time for eggs and fun!

Easter, O Easter,

God’s dead, have a currant bun!

It’s Easter, it’s Easter,

When Christ rose from the dead!

Easter, O Easter,

Time to varnish the shed!
