the washing

I fill you to the brim
and put the powder in,
I turn on your dials
and expect you to do miles,
I wait and wait
no patience, I am late,
I hear the washer shout
and pull the washing out,
now it's the dryer's turn
to belch and shout,
now it's too late
to go out and about!

I like it :P

This is my version:
===

I fill you to the brim
and put your powder in;
I turn your dials
and wait and wait.
"I'm late!" I hear
the washer shout:
"Pull your washing out!"
Then it's the dryer's turn
to belch and shout
and shout and shout!

Now it's too late
for me to go out!
