Fun With Puns

Fun With Puns* A shepherd and his sheep once took A shortcut across a frozen brook The owner charged a very high price For pulling the wool over his ice I didn't know if I were a wigwam or tepee So I was really depressed and sort of weepy Then a psychiatrist with very good sense Explained I was just a couple of tents Benny was rescued from a terrible place And lived out his life in a silver vase Thus he was a guy who finally learned That a Benny saved is a Benny urned A man bought an expensive new car And stopped for some drinks at a local bar Soon after he picked up some of his friends Who quickly learned how a Mercedes Benz Snow White felt weak and unsteady When her photographs weren’t ready She chewed on some gum and felt less glum Certain someday soon her prints would come Palm fronds are very relaxative Swallow them; they’re a very good laxative They won’t hurt you; they’re not venomous So, with fronds like those, who needs enemas It would be nice to have four more puns Because a total of ten would be fun Maybe one of them upon humor depended Or it's very possible that no pun in ten did *Of course, I would have given credit to the authors of these puns, but they are unknown.
