Low Morals

When a young lady named Miss Flow
Said, “Sir, your morals are so low!”.

Is writ?
And when he is gone
The record lives on
Be it known or not.

A most wicked young lady named Lou
Has written about me and Miss Sue.

And involves Miss Hocking.
We’d sue, but its all perfectly true!

There was a young man named Lyme
Who picked a fight with Father Time.
But old time slipped away.

Ann’s Pram

I met a young lady named Ann
Who was pushing a rather large pram.
She said “they look like you!”.
I replied, “oh god, that’s true!”.
And then I ran from Ann’s pram!
