As Saucy As Could Be
There was a damsel beautiful
The fairest in the land, and she --
As saucy as a wench could be
Her teeth shone white, her lips carefree...
She gave out kisses two by two
Red ruby lips and tongue at play
One kiss for me, the next for you
We twitterpated, you might say
But then one day, a tragedy
Affecting every man in town
The damsel, bitten by a bee
Her lips, dear me, had turned to brown
No more her ruby wares displayed
To rest all naughty whispers laid
