When A Young Lady Named White
When a young lady named White
Knocked at my door after midnight,
And said, with a grin,
“May I please come in?”,

Was relatively cheap.

Hears Adele,
He
Thinks on a girl who fell
And the comparatively low price,
Of that CD.

Whilst Staggering Home Drunk One Night
Whilst staggering home drunk one night
I saw a ghoul dressed in white,
Who said, “my name is Dave
And I’ve risen from yonder grave.
I said, “do you have a light?”.
When A Young Lady Named Beth
When a young lady named Beth
Said, “you are obsessed with death”,
I spoke of cooking oil
And of Shakespeare’s mortal coil,
Which bored poor Beth to death!
