Name My Sayings - What's In a Name

A list of names this contest needs But what to pick to serve this deed? I'll use the census - names top ten And express my wisdom - pseudo zen Surprised by sudden traffic jam Essential for your brakes to slam Shake up nitro just a taj Oh no earned my Darwin badge When let down by dear heartthrob 'erts a lot, so have a sob Reported UFO not cosmic Ha! Elastic frisbee con trick Punctuation, spelling, grammar Your language wood and nails and hammer I know what's best - I break your will I am your boss - now take your pill Beware of other's dark agenda Video the truth offender Here's a scheme to make you rich 'ard resist my conman's pitch When drinking up a mug of char Less is more and near is far A flute, two drums and three banjos Ephemeral - pluck, bang and blow My names are split, word sin definitive Yet just as sound as split infinitive My English slang and lingua pidgin Yet sage enough for fake religion! Entry for "what's in a name" contest Uses top ten names from US census: James, John, Robert, Michael, Mary, William, David, Richard, Charles, Joseph
