\u2013 all told<br><br>\n\nGoodness only knows<br>\nI was a miserable soul<br><br>\n\nFor a time I went to school<br>\nBut then I found a job<br><br>\n\nAs a clerk to a lawyer<br>\nOh it made my poor head throb<br><br>\n\nI failed to be an actor<br>\nIn spite of my loud gob.<br><br>\n\nEnded up reporting speeches<br>\nOf the parliamentary mob<br><br>\n\nThen as everybody knows<br>\nI started

an overnight sensation<br>\nBut I drove myself too hard to enjoy the adulation,<br><br>\n\nDespite my wealth, my family begged for money<br>\nI wrote of it in \u201cChuzzlewit\u201d which people said was funny.<br><br>\n\nDidn\u2019t sell like books before<br>\nMy family still asked for more.<br><br>\n\n\u201cLittle Dorrit\u201d is a tale<br>\nAbout my Dad in debtor\u2019s jail.<br><br>\n\nWhile \u201cHard Times\u201d tells my life<br>\n\u2018Bout when I tried to leave my wife.<br><br>\n\nLittle Nell\u2019s death was my poor,<br>\nDear, departed sister-in-law<br><br>\n\nAnd \u201cDavid Copperfield\u201d, working in a factory<br>\nI must confess that that was really me.<br><br>\n\nIn my life felt shamed<br>\n\u2019bout poverty in childhood<br><br>\n\nWrote about sadness, suffering and fears<br>\nAlso wrote about people with funny names<br><br>\n\nBumble, Smallweed, Scrooge,<br>\nUriah Heap and Wackford Squeers.<br><br>\n\nWhilst writing \u201cEdwin Drood\u201d<br>\nA train crash didn\u2019t help my mood.<br><br>\n\nStill I drove myself on with readings<br>\nFar across the pond<br><br>\n\nDied before I wrote Drood\u2019s end<br>\nThis sort of thing drove me round the
