For the benefit of my international readers, in England a Drip is a person with a complete absence of personality, energy and interest.
Drip, Drip, Drip!
Two drips don’t make a trickle,
Two trickles don’t make a flood,
When two drips get together
Interaction isn’t good.
I saw a TV programme
In which a drippy pair
Were looking for a new home
‘Twas a wearisome affair.
This dreary couple really were
A boring sight to see,
Devoid of any interest
Or personality.
They blethered and they dithered,
Made half-hearted look like fun,
And had as much hope as a snail
On a marathon run.
They specialised in feeble,
Disinterested and bland,
And didn’t seem that interested
In the task that was at hand.
I think they needed plugging
Straight into the mains,
To stimulate their energy,
Intelligence and brains.
Two drips don’t make a trickle,
Two trickles don’t make a flood,
When two drips get together
TV programmes aren’t that good.
