Ay, caramba! It might be surprise
ay, caramba... or plain old dismay
Use it early, at the start of the day
or later, when the sun goes away

My foreign music teacher my loins disturb,
her grammar poor but her Brazilian superb.
She yelled “Ay, Caramba!
Do you wanna samba?”
I do love to dance but no Miss, wrong verb!

I gaze at the sky with wonder
What secrets does it holds up yonder
Guess I'll never know
Nearing the end of my show
Would sure flick my flicker, ay caramba!!!

I just found out two poodles that I bought
were ferrets! Ay caramba! And guess what?
To make each one resemble less a rat,
they gave them steroids, making them both fat!
They also fluffed their pretty fur just so
around their heads. So how was I to know?
Each one looked so much like a toy poodle
they had me fooled - whole kit and caboodle!
Our veterinarian has verified
the facts for me. Those poodle dealers lied.
And folks now say I should have realized
the truth, which stared at me with beady eyes!
Those ferrets sure run fast; I think I’ll buy
two tiny leashes, or else I could try. . .
to sucker someone stupider than me.
Hey, buy one poodle; get the other free!
