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!
