When a young lady climbing the stairs
Said, “please make these socks into pairs”.
I went to the shops
And swapped all those socks
For a box of big juicy pears!

The Rake and the Vicar’s Daughter
There once was a wicked old rake
Who, wishing his great lust to slake
Took the vicar’s daughter
Down to the water,
Where she bludgeoned him with a cake!
A Professional Young Woman
A professional
Young woman.
No confessional
Just dinner
Then a bar
(Again he pays).
Then its goodbye
And the evening sky
To keep him company.
While she
Being a professional
Goes home alone,
For friendship
Complicates a fee.
Tea and Cake
When my friend who is a terrible rake
Invited me round for tea and chocolate cake,
There where lots of young women
And a good deal of sinning.
As for me, I stuck to the cake!
Hocking the Bluestocking
I know a young lady named Hocking
Who is famous for being a bluestocking.
She says she knew Shakespeare
Which is really quite queer,
As she’s just turned 18 has Hocking!
I Know a Young Lady Named Hocking
I know a young lady named Hocking
Who is famous for wearing 1 stocking.
I oft meet Miss White
By the moon’s knowing light.
But she’s far too respectable is Hocking …
The Pleasure Seekers
There once was a young lady named Heather
Who, wishing to find a gentleman of pleasure
Went out on the town
With her friend Miss Brown.
Where they met with the good vicar Leather.
Fruit Just Ripened
Fruit just
Ripened.
Half-excited,
Part-frightened
By lust.
Immorality
When a young lady named Miss Coral
Said, “sir, you are wicked and immoral!”.
My good friend Jean
Said, “he’s a libertine!”
As she handed the dictionary to Coral!
Miss Bland Who Was Fond of the Handstand
There once was a young lady named Bland
Who was an expert in performing the handstand.
She wore a short Dress
And along with Miss Bess
Was admired by the men of the land!
