M.I.L.T.
Blessed are the children and happy the spouses
Lucky the neighbours who everyday meet
Mothers In Leather Trousers
Pushing their buggies in T-shirts or blouses
Swish-swash hear them shimmying down the street
Blessed are the children and happy the spouses
Bricklayers' labourers stop building houses
Scaffolders, road-diggers, drivers compete
To whistle at Mothers in Leather Trousers
South Kensington ladies, Brummies and Scousers
Sisterhood of bottoms large or petite
Blessed are the children and happy the spouses
What a smooth and beautiful skin the cows is
Especially when softened and buffed up a treat
By Mothers in Leather Trousers
What man hasn't turned and tripped over his feet?
Polished anthracite with the promise of heat
Blessed are the children and happy the spouses
Who live with Mothers in Leather Trousers.
