Bookie
The bookie's is your favourite spot
To spend your leisure days
With a hot tip from the horse's mouth
You'll risk 50p each way
But it seems you wear the blinkers
You' ve selected the outsider
It's running backwards round the track
And unseated it's bloody rider!

Bowls
Out there on the grass
Just one more end to play
Jack rolled out and lying straight
But a blocker in the way
You bend those knees and bowl your wood
Your opponent is holding shot
But too much beer has taken it's toll
You miss the bloomin' lot
But never fret, you've one bowl left
A drive is now your scheme
You take the lead and win the game
Champion of the green!
