There was a young lady named Michelle
Who fell down a very deep well.
When they said, “are you okay!”,
She said, “here I will stay,
As I like this well very well!”.

I know a young lady named Mar
Who is known for losing her bra.
Her friend miss Lou
Often loses a shoe.
As for me? its my favourite bar …!
As the season of Halloween rapidly approaches
I meet many young women wearing cockroaches.
When I ask, “are you a witch?”,
They say, “no, we are very rich!
Don’t you know its expensive wearing cockroaches!”.
I met a young lady named Glover
Who asked could she be my lover.
She said, just for me
She’d throw in Miss Leigh,
Which delighted that young lady’s dear mother!
When a young lady whose name is Gale
Said, “you and your friend look so pale!”,
I said, “me and White
Went out drinking all night,
And there was something wrong with the ale!”.
I know a young lady named Rose
Who is known for crossing her toes.
When I say to her, “honey,
Why do you walk so funny!”.
She says, “I’m forever crossing my toes!”.
I know a young lady named Nelly
Who is famous for her smelly wellie.
We went to a gallery
With an artist called Valerie,
And exhibited Nelly’s wellie in a jelly!
When a young lady who sat mixing paste
Said, “your poetry is not to my taste!”,
Just for a caper
I grabbed some wallpaper,
And stuck it to her using that paste!
There is a young lady named Lou
Who is known for her easy virtue.
My good friend Dan
Is a generous man
Whose known for his charity to Lou …!
There is a young lady named Kipper
Who is famous for using a slipper.
I have heard tell
She does it well.
And the vicar he’s lost his slipper!
There once was a man named Ted
Who recited Chaucer standing on his head.
But a driver called Gus
Said “not on the bus!”,
So he quoted the great Dickens instead!
