I remember
In September
As a child
Running free and wild

Like a dream
At the Coal Seam
Mum was looking for the dog
Who was over by a log

"Oh no!"
"Don't go"
Mum didn't hear
So she showed no fear
Now she's starting to disappear

Over by the trees
She's up to her knees
In the soggy quick sand
Going down in a style so grand

Like a sitting duck
Mum's really quite stuck
Bitten by ants
They're now climbing her pants

Everyone lent a hand
To get her out of the sand
"Watch out, we'll all sink"
Mum kicked up a stink

She wanted out
And was starting to shout
Just like me
She's finally free

Now her feet are freezing
'cause her thongs are missing
And not by my little hound
Will they ever be found.
