Strange New Words
Nothing sounds happier
Than snickers or giggles
The words even cause us to laugh
Perhaps we could invent
A new one or two
Like sniggles or snickles or glaffs
It's all for the benefit
Of us human kind
In this world of turmoil and grief
There's hilarious words
Like loopsies or cleepers
Or how bout a hand full of meef
I know what you're thinking
The white coats are coming
This fellow's gone over the edge
The pressures of dealing
With everyday living
Has caused this fellow to skredge
So you see how it works?
You'll never be stumped
To fill out the end of each rhyme
Ask John John he knows
Uses very strange phrasing
And he saves a scritchy of time
