Snowballs Fright - Bawdy Limerick

Poor Frosty was built upside down
and quickly he’s talk of the town
He’s not wearing his smalls
so folks see his snowballs -
his smile soon turns into a frown!

When Santa learns of Frosty’s plight 
he orders some work late that night
So his wife Mrs Clause 
knits Frosty some new drawers - 
but his ‘carrot’ doesn’t hang right!

*drawers classed as one syllable as per the UK pronunciation of the word

Both limericks 8,8,6,6,8
