The cowboy in me always rides on a horse
Wearing six guns, crisp blue jeans and always, of course
My boots and my hat and a fancy white shirt
Though my job is quite risky, I never get...

Fairy Dance 

Where yet forbear spider hides, fairy chides 
Shall dare taunt and tiptoe on spider's web 
Silvery string hang and swing amides guides 
Slack-lining steps along until the ebb 

Shall dare taunt and tiptoe...

Love isn’t amorousness,
Nor is it hunger nor thirst,
With vehemence, I insist:  Love is a perpetual motion machine

Be shattered by Love,
And let all your disquietude...

*if ya wanna add some sillies, hop on the wagon!


After the feast, Tommy was gone
Hen said, "Don't worry, won't be for long."
"He'll reincarnate,

"He's always...

maudlin

maudlin Monday's mostly mud
halts the weekend with woeful thud
laughs and sillies
get the willies
on maudlin Monday, what a dud

tintinnabulous

tintinnabulous Tuesday
is the second paying-dues day

Enough is enough of this seriousness
Back to the sillies where I belong
Here's something to ponder, my friends
Why is the word 'abbreviation' so long

I don't usually have to think twice
Before giving it a second thought
You're schizophrenic?...

Light travels faster than sound... that's why

Some appear bright till they speak

I'm sure we've all met some people like this

You rock ‘n roll heads, country bumpkins and sillies
Trying to intimidate us into living your life path

Using shame we cannot feel, for we do not feel...

A skeleton walks into a bar and says
“Gimme a beer and a mop”
Show me where Joseph Stalin is buried
And I'll show you a communist plot

My masseuse rubbed me the wrong way again
Fired her though she...

Put your hands up those who want more sillies

Counted six thousand, one hundred and forty

First one, how does one make holy...

Shall dare taunt and tiptoe on spider's web

Silvery string hang and swing amides guides

Slack-lining steps along until the ebb


From fairest creatures’ spirit free clamor

Mice perch on grass blades cheer...

Bunches of sillies are attacking my brain
Trying to push the mushy stuff out
Gonna be a knock down drag 'em out affair
From the rooftops I wanna shout!

Have no idea which one I'm rooting for
Mushy stuff has...

Why does our nose smell and our feet run?

Methinks the answer could be kinky

If Mother Nature chose the other way round

It sure would be messy and stinky

Here's something you should never ever do

Don't make fun...

Here's Jack's philosophy in a nutshell
Did you catch that, in a NUTshell?
Got a little bit off the track for a while
But he's chugging along again like hell

Didn't think it would be too too long
He's basically...

You people must be tired and bored

Enough of this silliness, this one's more serious

What am I saying, I'm becoming delirious

Best see a doctor, got a strange kind of malady

Hope it's not going to affect my mortality

Now let's not be silly, it's...

Can anyone fathom a temperature of -40F

That's what we're experiencing today

Must qualify that, it's with the wind chill factored in

It's a balmy -15F, in this winter ballet

What am I doing here, have I lost all...

So here I go, back to the sillies
Jumping in with both my footsies
Clear the decks, full steam ahead
Hope I don't hurt my tootsies!

I don't like that incantation
Think I'll use...
