1825 - Cycling in the rain

I told Josie it was raining today
But she was still determined to cycle
But my back tyre's flat, I kept trying to say
These words must all have been inaudible
I have no pump - to ride's impossible
Anyway, before seeing her I bought
A pump from Halfords, and though difficult
Stuck her bike in my car, and soon we'd got
Her saddle raised (her knees were getting caught
On the handlebars - she grows every day)
Drove to my flat where I pumped my tyres full
And off we rode to Salford Quays, tried not
To get wet. A mad dog jumped in my way
And at great speed it headbutted my wheel
