From the recording Doggerel ditties

Lyrics





Laura. Andrew composition. This version sung by Rory and Pussy Barnett with piano arranged and played by Joe Thompson





Her open beauty needs no guile to catch her prey

She has no need to ration smile or sunny day

Disciples flock towards her just because they know

Transfixed by her example, basking in her glow



Panic over trouble

Feeling sad and low

She is there to help

She will always know



Her claws remain retracted even though they’re there

Her wit is seldom acid in spite of being rare



Panic over trouble

Feeling sad and low

She is there to help

She will always know



Her feet are on the ground, she jumps in first with zeal

Her flaws are just enough to make her real
