I've edited the lyrics to make it work for you :

Now there's a word that I don't understand
I hear it every day from my old man
It may be Cockney rhyming slang
It ain't in no school book
He says it every time that he gets mad
A regular caution is my old dad
Rub the old man up the wrong way, bet your life you'll hear him say

Karcher, cowson, karcher
Karcher!

When the kids are swinging on the gate
Karcher!
When the paperboy's half an hour late
Karcher!
When the pigeons are pecking at his seed
Karcher!
When the barber starts digging up his bean
Karcher!

Karcher, cowson, karcher
Bar stool preaching
That's the old man's game!

Now the old man was a Desert Rat
Khaki shorts and a khaki hat
How me mother could have fancied that
I just don't know
But when the enemy came in sight
They gave up without a fight
They rubbed him up the wrong way
This is what they heard him say

You mean they're flaccid? I think I saw one in Wilko once!

Re: I am Addicted and I Don't Care

I bought one of these this year also and was just as excited about it as you are Surfermom. I cleaned the decks, sheds, patio steps, cars, patio furniture, fences, the garage door and our house siding. They are great. My husband wouldn’t let me have one all these years because he said it would drain the well but it doesn’t. In fact , not even close.

I love it because all those jobs that used to take ages can now be done in a fraction of the time but the best part was I got to prove my husband wrong which is always fun. Lol

Thanks to Realist, my rolling trash cans are sparkling clean. Why did I never think of this before?

I've been that way for years.
