Look Out - Small Print

LOOK OUT- small print I really should ‘a read the fine print Cause that’s what makes all the trouble The fine print, the fine print Does anyone take the trouble? To read the print that’s got so small And so faint, on paper that tares so easily Should we bother to read it at all But with the magnifying glass we wearily Proceed to get to the end of the fine print It’s a never ending source of pain For nothing really as we never gain It’s all in the favour of the vendor Or, if needed the mender It’s no better in this new and modern age On the computer that’s all the rage On this site or that, there it is the fine print And it’s a fact, nobody can look in this age On any site without that dreaded stuff Up it comes with a great big puff And do we read it not at all Now it’s many pages long for all Tick this box or that else you get Many a thing that you regret Not reading all that very fine print The fine print we should ‘a read Many start with good intentions But after umpteen pages we bend So much trouble to read to the end That everything becomes in such fuddle Oh we all are in such a muddle What did we really miss When it came to that tick list Always remember though it’s true I really should’a read the fine print 12-4-16
