Best Popeye Poems

One character I used to like a  lot
was skinny, bald, and not at all refined.
yet he was superhuman when he fought
and also had a keen detective’s mind.

He had a pipe, and this ingenious bloke
would use it as a torch or periscope.
In fact, he rarely...

There once was a sailor named Popeye
He got through the navy with one eye
Wherever he sailed 
The dames would all hail
They knew Popeye was not a bad guy

Popeye you know had a sweetie
A long legged gal not to meaty
Olive Oyl was her name
Popeye's love was...

Popeye The Sailor Man


My name is Popeye the sailor man
I don't live in a big garbage can
I dis-like Spinach
strong to the finish
I'll cook your goose in a fying pan.

Popeye the Sailorman,
Ate spinach right from the can.
It gave strength to his muscles,
To overcome Bluto's tussles.

He eats all his spinach to make himself strong
To look good for the ladies, not that that's wrong
a pipe he wont smoke
but he'll give you a joke
Thought he was Jack but was Popeye all along...

Popeye -
with spinach became very spry.
He would save Olive Oyl, who became his Mrs.
from the clutches of Bluto, his nemesis.

Olive Oyl -
seemed to make Popeye toil,
for she two-timed her guy at the start
till he finally won Olive’s heart.

Popeye
Eats spinach and feels spry
Gains superhuman strength
Keeps Bluto at arm’s length

Olive Oyl
Is Popeye’s foil
Often kidnapped by Bluto
Whom Popeye then punches to Pluto.

I’m Popeye the sailor man! I eat spinach squeezed
out of a can; but Bluto is crucial, no matter how 
brutal, to me opening, such a large spinach can. 

And Pluto the dog, he gets lost in a fog, while Bluto
ties up Olive Oil. 

Thus, my...

Shakespeare meets Popeye.

Once upon a time in a town called Sweet haven
There lived a sailor type, tattoos and quite unshaven.
The Mayor was a biggish guy, “Caesar the spinach salad”
Yes that was his real name,
His passport it was valid.

But in that very place three anchors...

I'm Popeye the sailor, I'm sure not Popeye Doyle.
Things went down hill when I married Olive Oyl.
Bluto showed up at the wedding and started a fight.
As usual, I ate my spinach and punched out his lights.
But I hit him too hard and I broke his...

Saint Louie didn't like ravioli
And he wasn't much for mostaccioli
  So he went to Greenwich
  Had a taste of spinach
Louie screamed, "Unholy Poggioli!"

Poggioli, according to the urban dic-
tionary, is a disease causing the male

I asked Olive Oyl out a thousand times but she always said no.
I'm a big fat bully and my name is Bluto.
When it comes to Popeye, I can't remember the countless fights I picked.
He kept eating that damn spinach and I always...

I have to have it! I told my mother
Because I wanted to be Popeye
I wanted to develop those arm muscles
I wanted to save the day, and fight the bad guys

My mother finally broke down and bought it.
Canned spinach. I could hardly wait to gulp it...

Popeye 
A very muscular guy 
His love heart is loyal 
To Miss Olive Oyl 

Olive Oyl 
She makes Popeye's blood boil 
When Bruto is her man 
Popeye eats spinach, then... BING, BANG, BAM!

Popeye
Loves Olive he makes her sigh
Passion endures it will not die
Spinach the key don't ask why.

 
Olive Oil
Fell sick with humongous boil
She almost shook off this mortal coil
Popeye went cuckoo her death he did foil.
