THE PARTY

It was a lovely summer day

When my parents were away

On a week long holiday.

I thought i would throw a party

I thought it was a great idea,

My sister was not as hearty

but would still help me get the beer.

Dancing to the music i was having so much fun

When suddenly i met my cousin

Who had his big flare gun.

He was wandering around doing nothing,

When i realised what to think

that my old and trusty cousin,

had really too much to drink.

I realised the party was over,

the moment his eyes got bigger.

When i realised the party was over,

he had already pulled the trigger.
