Will You Walk A Little Faster

Will you walk a little faster said a Mummy to a gran
I’ve Jemima and Sebastian and a very strict time plan
I’ve my iPhone on my shoulder and it’s saying beepy beep
And I have to get the toddlers home before they fall asleep
Will you, won’t you, will you, won’t you, will you, won’t you walk more fast
Will you, won’t you, will you, won’t you, will you, won’t you walk more fast

Granny looked around her at the blue sky and the sun
Thinking that the silly girl behind her never had much fun
But then she looked severely at the pushy one behind
I shall walk at my own pace, she said, and that’s if you don’t mind
I will not, shall not, will not, shall not, will not, shall not walk more fast
I will not, shall not, will not, shall not, will not, shall not walk more fast

Yummy mummy cried such tears that flooded all the way
Oh please be moving faster or we’ll mess up all today
I have to have my acupuncture visit my hairdresser
Instead I’m stuck behind a besom who is a distresser
Will you, won’t you, will you, won’t you, will you, won’t you walk more fast
Will you, won’t you, will you, won’t you, will you, won’t you walk more fast
