Desmond was a large drake
Who swam in a wonderful lake
In a very grand house
With a cat and a mouse
And a duck for friendship sake...

Always beware of a man called Drake
Give him a wide berth for goodness sake
He will surely run amuck
Drakes are flirts
Ask other Ducks!...

For whom should we root?
They're both rappers cute
And fans will snap to the combat...

Random things he does
Always saying,"my eyes are pretty"
Kissing a bunch of girls he likes
Everything he does makes me laugh...

Like the Drake Hotel
The morning after
When the San Diego winds
Carried the scent
Of your perfume
Down the winding stairs

Playing bowls, Sir Francis Drake
on Plymouth Hoe did ages take
for the game proved that much harder

English poet and painter William Drake -
enjoyed little fame in his lifetime, for heaven’s sake.
A BBC’s poll of 100 great artists put him at 38.
Posthumous recognition sadly was his fate....

push ya over the madness pit,
been there till brain burned with it, 
escaped into the black pit of solace.... 
only cost was half a wit.


thanks Drake

Through your heart’s inner sanctum,
I, savor your deep inhale
bringing you closer to God.
Will you be my breath?

“Today, we again failed to reproduce,”
said the gander to the goose.
“If we wanna keep up with the drake and the duck,
we gotta do more than ~ just depend on luck.
We gotta actually let something hang loose.”...

while angels sit on clouds

Guess who just popped out of the woodwork
Good old Drake Eszes, can't hide my smirk
A friend from back when
So great he's back again
Hope he stays showing off his clever quirks

    While ice skating seemed fun,
    Round the ice they both spun.
    Ducks on ice without brakes, soon get a headache.

Sir Francis Drake was playing bowls
One day upon The Hoe,
And when the Spanish fleet appeared 
He didn’t want to know.

He calmly finished playing bowls
(We don’t know if he won),
But then he fought and proved his skill,
The Spanish on the run.

His dementia is the very worst kind.
The toe is lost, we cannot find.
Uh-oh, on a chain and freshly shined....
