Under the sterile
Sheet they meet
For a while,
And smile
The smile
Of the crocodile.

When A Young Lady Named Ria
When a young lady whose name is Ria
Wore a dress both short and sheer,
A cyclist called Mike
Fell off his bike,
And they married the very next year.
When A Young Lady Named Rose
When a young lady named Rose
Bought a set of completely clear clothes,
The people, being rude
Said, “you are nude!”,
Why they said that, nobody knows!
When A Waitress Whose Name Is Fay

Said, “your bill you must certainly pay”,

With a girl you label “Whore”?
Tell me
Who will you condemn?

Has an obsession involving strong glue.
She is extremely posh
And has lots of dosh,

Has stolen my spare set of keys.
She enters my home
When I’m all alone,
And she wont give back my keys!
I Know A Young Lady Named Claire
I know a young lady named Claire
Who has beautiful, long blonde hair.
My friend Yvette
Is a brunette,
And she doesn’t dye her hair!
I Long For
I long for
A knock
At my door
And for
Passion to unlock
In loss of shoe and sock,
But please, let it not
Be as before,
A girl, half there, longing for
The door,
And me
Wishing that she
