Men are from Mars.
Women are from Venus.
You can’t be happy
Without a hap-piness.
Men are from Mars.
Women are from Venus.
You can’t be happy
Without a hap-piness.

I think that great philosophers
Who from the old days came
Were the ones who didn’t laugh
At each others’ stupid names.
Think of how the commons laughed
And asked Ptolemy why
They had to spell his name
Starting with a silent pi.
Think of how these silly names
Through laughter would disable those
Who sought to set their Platos
And forkos on the tableos.
Think of poor Epictetus
The flat-chested stoic
And poor Heraclitus
Whose parents misspelled “heroic.”
I hope there’ve Bentham fun times
Locke’d within this rant.
Some days I’m very Thoreau
But today I said “I Kant.”

You laughed at me unreasonably
When I said “my name is Ben”
‘Cause you were thinking of the ’50s
When a lot of future men
Had names like Richard Jr.
But went by “Little Dick,”
And after you told me this
I knew you’re a girl whom up I should pick.

Good morning, I’m your anchorman
Stu Earlyforme.
Today, Beverly Hills, 90210
Cleveland Browns, 3.
In an unrelated story
UPS has hired
For delivering heavy packages
River, a female tiger.
Though mostly quite successful
She’s been criticized of late. These
Critics say its dangerous
When the tigress River meets yo’ freight needs.
A new study from Harvard
Indicates the transgender switch
Can give patients speech impediments.
It’s titled “Man or Myth?”
And finally porn star ventriloquist
Ada Youknowwhat faced rejection
When pitching her new sitcom
Entitled “Yeast Inflection.”

My urine is made of pure oxygen
Because of a disease that’s rare.
It’s not that bad except for the fact
That my parents called me “Pierre.”

My girlfriend left me yesterday,
Just took her stuff and went,
Yet left behind a little gift
For her now former-gent.
She left a bottle of soy sauce,
My sorrows for to drown.
She just could not resist the urge
To Kikkoman when he’s down.
I want a sci-fi movie
With a lisping protagonist
Who steals bladed weapons
From a man who reshaped a board.
The reason why is simply
I want them to beat the antagonist
Not with a light saber
But with a lather’s sword.

We could talk about the ego,
Super-ego, or the id
But I don’t think that does justice
To the amazing things Freud did.
Anyone can acknowledge
That people’s brains are weird,
Have a couch to lie on,
Or grow a snazzy beard,
But how many psychiatrists
Can also play guitar
Like Dr. Sigmund “Pink” Freud did?
That guy was quite a star!

I said I was her rock,
Her anchor, her wall.
She sold me to a mining company.
Alas, that is all.

Some of you may believe
That I wear my heart on my sleeve
As a matter of choice,
But don’t heed that voice.
There was a surgeon who’s since taken his leave…
