Premium Member Nose Pick

My grandpa played in a rock band
playing guitar he gave a hand
	he lost his pick
	had to think quick
used his nose and made a grandstand

Cantankerous celibate husband
long time since male member did expand
overdosed viagra
bulge rivaled Niagara
exciting playboys in grandstand

Premium Member Reelin' in the Years

On one knee I'd bow my heart 
And take you by the hand
I'd ask if you would marry me
Simply, no grandstand 
If you said yes, before you'd kneel
The happiest man alive
Who wouldn't have to count the years
Until he's 1-O-5

For P L

Yesterday I made a promise,
That I knew I would break’
On a grandstand, I blew a kiss’
So that my life I’d make’
Shallow tears, O shallow tear!
Wicked heart, O you so wicked,
I am but a chosen smear -
In the least, I become a rich puppet.


Premium Member Watery Workout

Flippers up
  Flippers down
Wave those flippers 
  All around

Swish your tail
  From side to side
Create a wake
  A water slide

Take a plunge
  Dive down deep
Your body propelled
  As up you leap

Hey, Sea Lion
  Clap your hands
When you perform
  You grandstand*



*To grandstand means to 'ham it up'

Premium Member Recipe Four The Butterfly Leaving The Innocent Cocoon

you barf baster again
washbowl always amplify serious
burden but buttress can
gloriously grandstand crumpled expunging
never negotiate prolonged affliction
center choppy crabbedness extract
stillness for greenback stockholding
that ascribe brandish backsliding
gastrogavage plumping faintness and
your wedding will be
unalterable fluttering caring desirableness

Faith

In the middle of this universe I stand, hoping someone will take my hand
In the middle of this universe I stand, in this beautiful dreamland
In the middle of this universe I stand, looking for faith I demand
In the middle of this universe I stand, it's so hard to understand
In the middle of this universe I stand, not looking for a grandstand
In the middle of this universe I stand, will God take my hand.

The Land of Legerdemain

Let's look to the land of Legerdemain
locale with surprises by sleight-of-hand.
Cards, coins, magic wands tax one's eyes and brain;
absorbed, we watch street performers grandstand.
Legerdemain - skullduggery pre-planned, 
audience rapt in magic so diverse 
assistants can pinch your wallet or purse.
True talent of prestidigitation 
would never aid legerdemain’s perverse
misuse of skillful manipulation.
