Maybe roasted salamanders
But he got the world  finger lickin’
With his recipe for Kentucky Fried Chicken

I'M Not Colonel Sanders
Because I look like Colonel Sanders, people ask me for the secret recipe.
When I tell them that I don't have it, they always get very angry at me.
These dumbasses don't even know that the Colonel has been dead for thirty-five years.
Some people get violent when...

Colonel Flighty is a cad
Thinks himself a funny wag
Thinks he's mighty, ain't that sad
"Look at me! A strutting stag!"

Jiggly belly, jowls that sag
Throat all phlegmy, such a drag
Trousers smelly, makes you gag
Leaky colostomy bag.

Toss him quickly drown a crag
If he lives we'll be so mad
End...

She Looks Like the Colonel
I know that beauty is superficial, what's important in a person is how they are internal.
But she makes me think of Kentucky Fried Chicken because she looks like the Colonel.
When people see her, they all think that she founded KFC.
I've tried and tried to get...

Kfc - Sir Colonel Sanders Tm
Good afternoon sir Colonel Sanders,
I wonder how you still have that smile.
I admire how you’ve kept your standards
After many complaints for a long while.
At least that smile of yours have some style!!!!...

Colonel House: Administrator (1585-1938)
With Southern charm
He forged the hold
Of foreign gold
On town and farm.

He gave us two
Proud presidents—
No accidents--
Yet hid from view.

I guess he felt
That Wilson could
Be used, as should
Be Roosevelt.

He coached the game
To win us all:
The Federal
Reserve’s its name.

And he’s to thank 
For nations leagued
And then intrigued
Behind...

The Colonel and the Clown
The Colonel and the Clown

By Elton Camp

Come visit the colonel or the clown
For the finest food that can be found

You don’t even have to hunt around
For we are found in most every town

Our stores are especially neat and clean
Where many smiling faces can be seen

Most...

The Colonel
Colonel Sanders is my rooster's name,
he's quite the specimen when it comes to game.
In the morning he stands up proud
and wakes me up with a crow that's loud.

Next to other roosters he's twice their size,
with love on his mind and mischief in his eyes.
The hens...

A Killing Colonel Cornered
Soldiers with the cornered colonel
Said to crack him like a kernel,
Easily made him surrender,
Account of his orders render…

Colonel Smith, on his neck flannel,
Suddenly facing a Panel
In his house and front verandah,
Two watching from his Coriander…

They knew where to questions channel:
“Who’d twelve men shot from tunnel?”...

Colonel Orenthal Thaddeus Simpson

A gentleman of confidence and ambition, whose impression superimposed upon the common folk, a speech concerning absolute existence and the result of it. A self-built and well-constructed plane is valueless if it is without an engine, wings or instrumentalities and the sheer...
