My Satanic Phone

I once had a satanic phone,
When anyone called, it would groan.
It made up a lie,
Told my girlfriend Di:
‘He’s out…giving the dog a bone.’ *

*Slang for sex

:) I needed the footnote, but Alexa already knew what you meant, Jack. You better make sure your "satanic phone" isn't telling lies to Sue. Congratulations on your success in the contest with this funny limerick! The competition was stiff, so all who placed had to be in the top tier of both Alexa's and my rankings. Love, Carolyn
