While fixing the blades on my mower
I thought they were moving much slower

I reached in my hand

While fixing the blades on my mower

I met a boll weevil named Jack
Who had a strange growth on his back
He said with a grin

Even still they don't have much money
Spending time in a cave
Pinching pennies to save
And wiping their butts with a bunny.

As I listened one morn to Debussy...

As you see my tastes are not fussy.

Dear Sally, said Harry, lettuce spoon.

They kissed for an hour....

Harry's mouth was quite sour.

And his tongue had begun to prune.

By the light of the silvery moon...

Dear Sally, said Harry, lettuce spoon.

They kissed for an hour....
