At both ends and pretend
That waning candlelight can somehow fight
The oncoming night. Then in age
Our wracking cough
Says all lights
Will go off

When a young lady named Price
Said, “do you 2 like vice?”
Me and Miss Leigh
Said, “we like 3!
But we can’t afford your price!”
There once was a lady named Price
Who liked to skate on thin ice.
A person named Dan
Being a wicked man,
Skated with Miss Price on that ice …!
A young lady who is never nervous
Is famous for giving a great service.
After a very quick drink
She said, with a wink,
“I’ll give that old banger a service!”
