Pa Goose's Bedtime Stories - 2

Jack and Jill sped to the pub to fetch a pail of ale, To quench papa's unquenchable thirst without fail! Alas, they tripped spilling the bucket of brew in the gutter! "What am I to do without my daily tot?", papa was heard to mutter. Rub-A-Dub-Dub, three politicians soaked in a jacuzzi, Each sippin' a Manhattan, all feelin' quite boozy! The republican said, "Ah, this is the life for me!" The democrats said, "Yes, this once we will agree!" Jack you'd best be agile - Jack you'd best be fleet! Jumpin' over that candlestick could scorch yer feet! And so as not to singe your rump, 'Tis best that you make one humongous jump!
