Improper

Jane was very prim and proper
Until one day, she came a cropper
She caught her stiletto in a drain
She screamed profanities to ease the pain
And punched a kindly, helpful copper

Prim and proper wore stilettos. Fell for a puppet-maker named Giapetto...

Wonder how many days she'll spend in a cell. Quite laughable.
