Barb has given up rhyme,Monty is now going biblical
Which strikes me as rather cynical
Makes his verses appear holy
Above reproach totally
Rebuttal becomes untenable
You are an unlucky chap,
Blahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh(New Law: Limericks must rhyme properly on pain of flogging of tight little, by order of Doctorum de Limerickorum M. Crusto)
Of course, a Limerick should rhyme,Barb has given up rhyme,
She writes blank verse all the time,
Well if Shakespeare was down,
Why not? Go to town!
It’s not as if that were a crime.
(New Law: Limericks must rhyme properly on pain of flogging of tight little, by order of Doctorum de Limerickorum M. Crusto)
‘Tis a by-law of Limerick Town,By whose rules is it a crime
That every line must rhyme
Seems quite a task
Unreasonable to ask
To perfectly rhyme every time
(New Law: Limericks must rhyme properly on pain of flogging of tight little, by order of Doctorum de Limerickorum M. Crusto)
‘Tis a by-law of Limerick Town,
That blank verse will be met with a frown.
And she that persists,
Will be bound by the wrists,
And flogged with her knickers pulled down!
You might think you’re safe over there,Since I live far across the deep sea
Limerick town’s rules don’t apply to me
I’ll rhyme as I will
With wit and skill
Strictly following rules does bore me
Barb, there`s no need to cry,Since I live far across the deep sea
Limerick town’s rules don’t apply to me
I’ll rhyme as I will
With wit and skill
Strictly following rules does bore me
A poet, is Barb, of renownBarb, there`s no need to cry,
Your Limericks rhyme when you try.
On this Board, every day,
Your wit you display,
So what could go sadly awry.
Our mighty coastal defenses are setYou might think you’re safe over there,
From the Limerick Councillors’ glare,
But they might take the notion
To cross the deep ocean
To teach you a lesson... beware!
Minnesota is well known to boastOur mighty coastal defenses are set
The Limerick Councillor’s fleet to net
We’ll fight em on the beach
A lesson in manners to teach
No lesson from them will I get
Our only coast is Lake SuperiorMinnesota is well known to boast
Of the rugged grandeur of its coast;
They spared no expense
On their laser defence;
Any boat that approaches is toast.
Today, you`ve been on top form,Our only coast is Lake Superior
which is deep in the interior
so defense was simple
caused nary a ripple
against a force so inferior
