Verse and worse

Way out in space, it’s a special occasion
A decade of humans aboard the space station
The crew can’t play football, or bring home fresh prawns
But there’s no noisy neighbours, or mowing of lawns

  7. There was no disgrace to fly through space and leave a mark while there
    So she zipped up her suits and put on her boots
    While grabbing a brush for her hair
    She always loved a mystery and now she's making history
    She wanted to do it with flair!

  9. I wouldn't go out into space
    I'd sooner stay safe in my place.
    Here it's not rosy
    But very cosy
    I can pop out & get chips with plaice.

  11. Even though men have been to the moon
    You won't get me there any time soon
    I really hate flying
    I'll just end up crying
    Life here on earth is a boon.
