Lame Name Game

Silly Billy had no fear, he drowned it in a case of beer. Handy Andie so adept, kept so busy, she never slept. Dirty Donna did what you wanna, she lived just down the street. You didn't have to ask her twice, she was so nice and very sweet. Hairy Larry all alone, made the women grimace and groan. Very scary in his approach, girls would crush him like a roach. Steady Betty, always ready with what ever it took. Found a way to save the day, be it by hook or crook. Stan the man does what he can no matter what it takes. Always appalled by what has happened, then says for goodness sakes. Gabby Abby giggles and talks with nary a concern. I wonder if there'll ever be a time she'll ever learn. Bob the slob wouldn't get a job, he did nothing all day. He looked a mess, and yes I guess, there's nothing left to say. Chatty Patty talked so much, she developed lock jaw. You'd think that that would slow her down, but nah. Dorky Doug had quite the mug, he looked a little askew. When he'd greet you on the street, you didn't know what to do. Nick the stick was very quick, always on the go. He never walked, he always ran, the word slow, he didn't know. Guilty Milty quite the guy. He never looked you in the eye. If you caught him at his game, instead of shame, he'd rather die. Ditzy Mitzy, not a clue, in her ear, you'd see clear through. Sandy Sandy, on the beach, the young men she would beseech. Their young minds she couldn't reach, but that's not what she tried to teach. Loser Lenny always played, what it cost, he never weighed. Didn't know when to walk away, should have left, but always stayed. Pervy Peter made skin crawl, I'm guessing his was pretty small. You felt like you'd catch a disease, even if he would just sneeze. Surly Shirley, not too girly, and not very nice. You can ask her once, a question, but don't ask her twice. Bendy Wendy in the breeze, did everything down on her knees. The young boys she'd always please, when they would leer up in the tree's. Kent the gent, his kindness spent, decided it was time. To let them know just what he meant, but still did it in rhyme. Holy Holly, quite contrite, prayed sincerely every night. Oh, good golly, how she yearned for things to be just right. In the interest of keeping your interest, I think I'll stop it here. Like Billy up in the first line, I think I'll have a beer. :)
