Tired Piggy gets Censored

Tired Piggy takes a nap

And dreams about a duck.

Tired Piggy doesn’t care:

He doesn’t give a (darn).

 

Tired Piggy awakes

On a chair on which he sits.

He feels a tugging in his intestines

And Tired Piggy (excuses himself).

 

Tired Piggy isn’t interesting.

He is an awful bore.

He looks to find some romance,

So he hires a (court jester).

 

Tired Piggy isn’t crude,

Although he tries to be.

Now tell the censors to (darn) themselves

They’re doing a (court jester)-ible job censoring me.

The Newscaster’s Perfect Day

Alas and alack, I turn my back

And nothing moves to strike me.

The world is too sunny, the people too funny,

And everyone happens to like me.

 

No stress have I found, no troubles abound,

And it makes it quite hard to be moody.

I’m alway too happy, my life isn’t crappy,

And women have far-too-nice booties.

 

It’s unfortunate, aye, that blue is the sky

When I make my job writing the news.

So until something’s bad, I’m off to be sad

And to sing out the life’s perfect blues.

This is Rain

This is rain.

This is rain.

Rain is like water

That falls from the clouds.

Rain is like a simile that is not redundant,

Nor does it repeat itself or say the same thing more than once.

In fact, rain does not say anything at all,

But if it it did, it would say “Moo”

Because rain often falls on cows,

And it’s useful to speak the same language as those around you.

Rain is the color of chemically bonded hydrogen and oxygen

Kept between zero and one-hundred degrees celsius.

It is wise beyond its years,

Especially since it doesn’t have a brain,

And quiet, except when you are sleeping or trying to concentrate

And wise beyond its years.

Rain is like water, falling from the clouds,

The sky trying to punch the Earth

And failing,

Because the sky has no muscles or arms.

This is rain.

This is rain.

Bad Moon Rising

‘Twas a right cheery morning

Halfway through June

As I stretched and awakened

I did get mooned.

 

Before this I had thought that

The moon was round.

And those thoughts weren’t old hat:

It weighed ten pounds.

 

That there mooning was stressful.

What did I do?

I wrangled a gator, yes.

Then it I threw.

 

Gator sailed through the window

Bit off mooner’s arm. Uh,

What can this man say?

I fulfill mooner’s Karma.

 

Wouldn’t it be nice if real life worked this way?

My Favorite Flower

I’m one of those guys who thinks like a man.

I don’t stop to smell flowers or work on my tan.

I have dark green eyes. I eat meat from a can.

I lack superpowers, but I watch Jackie Chan.

 

So one day a lady

Asked me a question:

“What’s your favorite flower?”

I asked for suggestions.

“Maybe a flower that is Kuwaiti?”

The thought of that flower gives me indigestion.

“A rose is quite classic, surely a wower.”

Sounds easy enough.  That ended our session.

 

A man knows in matter of flowers and shopping

That matters are best settled quickly,

For women are prone to suggesting without stopping

And that makes a man like me sickly.

My Wishes (The plasma gun song)

I wish I had a Plasma Gun

‘Cause that would be a lot of fun.

You can bet I wouldn’t set it on stun!

I wish I had a Plasma Gun.

 

I wish I had a Lightsaber

And a suit of armor like Darth Vader

And claim paternity over total strangers.

I wish I had a lightsaber.

 

I wish I had a Jetpack

Because it rhymes with Net Hack.

Flying through the air with a backpack,

I wish I had a Jetpack.

 

If I had all these wishes

I’d shoot and lightsaber some fishes.

Then I’d fly away with my bitches,

And I’d never again wash the dishes!

Wisdom from my Dad

I was taught something handy from someone called “Dad”

That although it is nice to have fun,

If you want to have something that you’ve never had

Try something that you’ve never done.

 

If you want to get anywhere in this here world,

You’ve got to most truly desire it.

If something’s in your head that makes dreams come unfurled,

It’s prudent to go in and fire it.

 

And thus, amidst humor, on occasional times

It’s wisdom, not comedy, that comes forth from my rhymes

Dogs

It’s a nasty bit of evolution

That humans ever evolved.

Why couldn’t the world have been made

So around dogs it revolved?

 

Dogs are gentle, kind, and free.

They never need to complain.

A floppy tongue of a doggy smile

Can ease any human pain.

 

A dog can live quite simply

Amused all day by a branch.

We humans instead entertain ourselves

With trips to China or Franch.

 

Dogs are faithful and low maintenance.

The scratch when they feel itches.

I really do not understand

Why some call women bitches.

 

So that’s my rant on dogs today,

And I am happier now.

Excuse me reader, as I leave

To milk an electronic cow.

Limerick Adam and Eve

There once was a man from Junyper

Whose name was, in fact, Peter Piper.

He picked peppers one day,

In a tongue tying way,

And played tediously with a viper.

 

The viper mistook him as female,

And read aloud an old chain email.

“Eat the apple,” it said,

“‘Cause it’s temptingly red.”

So he did, and this line rhymes with Shemale.

 

Pete took apples back home to Eve,

Who was flirting with some guy named Steve.

Pete’s named changed to Adam.

Steve took a swing at ’em,

So Adam decided to leave.

 

Thus Eve never ate up the apple,

And she and Steve shared lemon Snapple.

So ask preacher man

As soon as you can

To read this bad poem at chapel.
