Die Another Day“Die Another Day”
“Your mission, should you so deem it,
Is to infiltrate ALL Fluff Clusters in K.A.O.S. Headquarters
And bloody well steam it!”
“The Place is a hazardous mess of a trap
Over run with Double Agents, ulterior motives
Amorous Nuns-on-the-Run drooling ardent dreams
of swimming naked
in buckets of Blood...

Craw-Fish BoilThe leaves were turning red and gold;
And frost was in the air.

A cry from Cajun lips.
When they rounded up those Frenchmen;
And loaded them on ships.
So they came to "Louisiane;"
A strange and...

Those Contest TitlesI guess I will, have to admit
My english ain't that good
But thought I'd find a contest
To win one if I could
But when I started reading
The words found on 'That List'
I instantly realized
There's schooling that I've missed
Is Alouette's some kind of song
I heard, frenchmen sing before
Is...

A Stroll At the Biltmore EstateThe Student
As I strolled upon the green
and take in the breathtaking view of the front lawn
the onrush of winter geese take on the horizon,
waking me to my senses.
The silent roar of two lions guard the entrance
the entrance that now greets me from the summer...

Went on rampage with just her Strummer
Tunes she hissed were so sweet
Crunched Frenchmen by the fleet
Watch Out ! ‘Merica ! for this Nor’-Easter !

According to local folklore
In England, there at Hartlepool
A monkey was hanged from a yardarm
A monkey that wasn’t a ghoul
It happened way back in a war time
Napoleonic to be exact
A French ship was wrecked of the coast there

You Don'T Have To Speak English Well, Or Even At All, To Be a British MonarchWilliam the First was our last king to come uninvited
though invincible armadas have sometimes been sighted.
Foreign kings were imported in cases of doubt.
Native kings had the habit of getting thrown out.
In the War of the Roses none tipped the scales
till the fray was joined by...

My Favorite Wild AnimalMy favorite wild animal is
as strong as Hulk Hogan
and eats fresh quail.
She is as strong as
Chuck Norris, and Rocky,
and they fly faster than mail.
My favorite animal makes a
hungry cheetah look unnaturally slow.
He conforms into a aerodynamic
teardrop when he hunts below.
My favorite...

Joie De Vivre'Tis said that the young girls of France
At the age of twelve lose their pants
To an handsome young knight
Well equipped for the fight
With a strong but flexible lance
Les Françaises are known to cavort
For sex is their national sport
That thing between thighs
Is the Font of Sighs
Though...

A Syrian Child Is Now the Lamb of GodImmigrants are very useful now
Roast a Turk to share with all your street
Eat a Greek and let the people squeak
A Viking flames the pudding with a bow
Try a German sausage in the Court
Eat him with a knife and fork and bread
