As I strolled through London’s Crystal Palace
I met a young lady named Alice.
She and Miss Follett
Have borrowed my wallet.
Has anyone seen that Follett or Alice?

Said, “I may die this very night!”.
I said, “I’ll have your lover
The beautiful and talented Miss Glover”

Which quickly burned Mole and his coal!
I Found a Sock
I found a sock
Too small to be mine.

Politics and Beer
When a beer loving Socialist named Grub
Went and entered a prestigious Conservative club,
And they said, “why are you here!”,
He said, “I came here for beer,
As the beer here is very good!”.
Debauch
Following a night of great drunkenness and debauch
I found a young lady on my porch.
Her name it was Lou
And she’d lost a shoe.
I wonder, was she part of my debauch?
The Bliss of Married Life
When I said to a girl called Lou
“Let us pretend that I’m married to you”.

On a Damp and Dark Halloween
On a damp and dark Halloween
I observed a most interesting scene.
The Devil did romance
A demon from France
As the banshee did loudly scream!
All Taped Up
A young woman in a dark cape
Wrapped me up with very thick tape
And posted me
To sunny Dundee,
Where I made a most daring escape!

Who was known for his love of chickens.
When I said, “do you write?”,
He said, “yes throughout the night.
But my writing is all eaten by chickens!”
