The Country Talent Quest

It's that time of year again
Yeah haw!
The annual Country Music Talent Quest time.
So it's out with the sheet music,
Google chords and lyrics,
And check out all the versions,
Of the best country has to offer on You Tube.
Finding the right key for junior cowgirls and boys.
Practising and getting decked in just the right kit.
Then there's the dry run on club night.
Haggling over what sections to enter.
Sleepovers for other young hopefuls,
Who tag along with your family singers.
The comedy skits and the last minute dummy spits.
These culminate in a long long day at the local RSL.
Bring along a blanket, some books and colouring in,
To keep all ages occupied.
The smell of the makeup and hairspray.
The frocks, boots and bulging love handles.
The singers and the ear splitters.
The blood and the tears.
Wholesome entertainment for the whole family.
