laid to a restless unknown...

There once were a man from Dunkirk
A politician he was for his work
He said all propaganda are lies
And then to his demise
He told the truth and he went berserk....

There Was Once a Nerd
There was once a nerd so eager to lurk
Well fed up with his life and his cattle
So he took off with a boat
But that boat did not float
And started to swim from Dover to Dunkirk...

Down In Dunkirk
The once was a man from Dunkirk.
The war came and he went berserk.
In the French battle field,
Local harlots did yield.
Escape came by fancy footwork.

The Man From Dunkirk
There once was a man from Dunkirk
Who always was late for his work.
This man was so lazy,
He drove his wife crazy.
She stabbed him awake with a dirk.

Security In Jeopardy
The Social Security system
Is struggling to find a sound rhythm
If Grandpa survives
Past Age 65
Will Feds send a posse to kill him?

Banana Surprise
Banana went to culinary college
Yellow, firm, wanted so much knowledge,
Standing up in last class,
Ending up in large mass,
Now was the time for all to acknowledge.

That Must'Ve Hurt
There once was a young man from New Paltz
Who performed tricks at bowling league halls
One day with his yo-yo
His teammates screamed: "OH, NO!"
When the darn toy got caught 'round their balls!

Curiosity
As a child it was fun and quite daring
To ogle what the other was carrying
We hid in the loft
Where we played quite oft
To inspect what the other was baring

There Was Once a Man From Dunkirk
There abided an old dude in Dunkirk
Who was a deacon in the parish kirk
He cast his lecherous eyes
On ladies' keisters and thighs
He was renowned about town for this quirk

bunnies in the water
distress alarm went out over the Dunkirk Sea
french bunnies in the water, capsized, maybe three
tugboats and rowboats raced to try and help
argentine bunnies were pulled out wearing gooey kelp
I rescued four, Michigan, a freighter captain said.
we have five here, announced my uncle Fred.
altogether they rescued nineteen bunnies that day.
boats of every color and country, many from far away....

Dunkirk – How it Hurt
They once tried to survive upon the sand
That they called No-Man’s land
Bombs and bullets fell as they stared
They couldn’t breath as there was no air
But then out at sea what a commotion
Stirring up such emotion
It’s time for you to go home young man
For you no more sleeping on the sand
That was a voice that they heard
If they made it through the curve
May God bless all who served
Because you all deserve
Our unreserved
Thanks
DAMO...
