Default A Poem-add on if you wish

There once was a lady named Karmen,
Who thought she was very charmin,But when the pressure was on,and all the men had run and gone
Quoteth Karmen."Relax,it's only me damn frying pan"!!

Then along came fair Geoff the gimp,
Who,because of his broken toe had a limp,
He says" Maiden fair,feed me my dear,
Else me toe blow up like a blimp!!"

Dear Karmen was in a quandry as she hadn't done fair Geoff's laundry
Says she"Oh dear why me,as you all can see
They took all my Tim-tams,now look what I am
But a vegemite starved lass,in a sea of Spam!

Then along came fair Marko,who would make her go loko,
And says "do you like carriers my sweet?
Oh yes says she,but please be discreet
AS I'm from Winterpeg,and don't know where to go??

Well,says he there's land you may know
That all of us call Oz where it never snows
But watch these people,every word is a'Bleep
And I hate to say they do love their sheep!!
So as she wanders back to her lair ,
We hear Jeoff's words"
Could you get me another beer my dear?"!!

Default Limerick

There was a brave Canuck named Shipton
Who thought he'd use Carmen to pick on
But it'll take more than luck
To get out of this muck
As he dons the helmet that she'll.... she'll....


WHIZZZZZZZZZZZZ CRASH BANG!

Sorry the last verse didn't rhyme but we're into reality here.

Speak for yourself Master Keefy .... now:

There once was a Garry who tried to be snappy,
Who one time dissed our Ma Yappy ,
When to his surprize,
A lump on his head did rise,
From her frying pan which made her happy

"That was a cute little rhyme
So sing us another one, sing us another one, sing us another one, do..."

" There once was a man from Boston,... or

" There once was a wanker named Dave,... or

" A new cinematic emporium
Was not just a super sensorium,... or

"All Hail Kathuzalem, the daughter of Jerusalem.
All Hail Kathuzalem, the daughter of the rabbi... or

"Four and twenty virgins came up from Inverness
And when the Ball was over, there were four and twenty less,
Singing, Who did ye last nicht....and so on.

Art Johnson, are you having a reminiscent chuckle?

Those were the days, grouped around the Mess piano and belting out the songs!

Ahhhhh..The old songs...

"Four and twenty virgins came up from Inverness
And when the Ball was over, there were four and twenty less,
Singing, First ladie forward,second ladie back....Third ladies finger up the fourth ladies cra*k...
The village police man ,he was there...he had a great big pole...
Pulled the foreskin or'er his head ,and whistled through the hole....
Singing, First ladie forward,second ladie back....Third ladies finger up the fourth ladies cra*k...
.....Only a couple of the zillion verses...
And then there was...
For fourty days and fourty nights,
We sailed the broad Atlantic....

Default Talk about hangovers!!

The first & only time I heard this tune was back in 98 or 99-can't remember,still in a fog.We were doing this massed band thingie with three air force bands for the Halifax Memorial in Trenton Ontario.Anyway,we got into the hotel bar right beside the museum for the rest of the night.Talk about the air force flying-without planes.One of the pipers wi a wee brogue from the auld sod started this tune and it went on & on into the wee hours with verses going on forever.The better the verse the more you drank FREE.That 200 mile bus ride back to Montreal the Sunday morning felt like 500 miles.Thanks for the reminder(HIC!)
