Laugh With Jack Revisited
Some lions mate over 50 times a day
Now that's really unbelievable
I'm only good for about 40 times tops
50 is almost inconceivable
The dot over the “i” is called a tittle
I'm aware naughty words aren't allowed
Though this one's legit I looked it up
But don't yell it out in church too loud
Only one person in more than two billion
Lives to 116 or older
Sorry to disappoint you my P-Soup friends
I intend to be that record holder
An ostrich's eye is bigger than it's brain
Know quite a few people like that
Some are members of my immediate family
They's dumber than the household cat
The longest recorded flight of a chicken
Is thirteen seconds, quite short
Fleeing for its life from the butcher's knife
Screaming “Got wives and kids to support!”
Buckingham Palace has over 600 rooms
Elizabeth hasn't seen Phillip in years
Tried to pick up her up one night last summer
Liz promptly kicked him in the rear
Some worms will actually eat themselves
If they're unsuccessful finding food
There might come a time when I'd do that
But I'd really have to be in the mood
Beetles taste like apples, worms like fried bacon
What weirdo discovered this
Even if they paid me a gazillion dollars
You wouldn't catch me licking the dish!
Eeewww!!!
