Silly rhymes

Good old formidable Samuel Bass

Khalid Mukhtar · October 31, 2015 ·

Good old formidable Samuel Bass
Drank like a fish and ate like an ass,
The secret of his most formidable mass
Was how he kept to himself all of his gas.
Gas has no mass unless you’re an ass
Like good old formidable Samuel Bass.

I met an old man on Kings Boulevard

Khalid Mukhtar · October 31, 2015 ·

I met an old man on Kings Boulevard
Who prided himself upon being a bard,
He danced like a peacock and preened like a dove
And blathered some words about romance and love.

Johnny’s too lazy to brush

Khalid Mukhtar · October 31, 2015 ·

Johnny’s too lazy to brush,
Johnny’s too lazy to floss,
The dentist affirms that soon he’ll have germs;
Poor Johnny’s in terrible loss.

Raja Dhobi

Khalid Mukhtar · October 31, 2015 ·

Raja Dhobi loved his gobi,
Tender, warm, and crunchy.
Rani Dhobi loved her gobi,
Mashed into a bunchee.
She served it her way so much to his grief
That he struck her head with a banyan leaf;
They ate it together in tasty relief.

Nancy Tootsie

Khalid Mukhtar · October 31, 2015 ·

Nancy Tootsie lost her bootsies,
Somewhere in the woods,
She lost her mittens there one time,
And many other goods.

Disco Bobby

Khalid Mukhtar · October 31, 2015 ·

Disco Bobby
Had a hobby:
Danced in every hotel lobby.

Periwinkle Poopsy

Khalid Mukhtar · October 31, 2015 ·

Periwinkle Poopsy,
Loves to ouch and oopsy;
She does so when she burns her lips
Drinking chicken soupsy.

The Rangles and the Wangles

Khalid Mukhtar · October 31, 2015 ·

The Rangles and the Wangles,
How they fought for Granny’s bangles,
Grandpa socked them in the face
For they brought about disgrace.
