Alone with his rubber ducky

People exploring it are quite brave

There was a young man from Kentucky
Went into the pantry to find a cookie
A gay man from Dover
seeing him bending over
said I just can't believe I'm that lucky

A young fellow soldier from Kentucky
He considered himself rather lucky
Stationed at Ft. Knox,
Opened a vault box
But, alas, it was empty … how sucky!

There was a lady from Kentucky,
Whose husband always played hockey,  
She wrote poems on magic,
Until there was a tragic,
Her husband was turned into a key.

There’s a young married man in Kentucky
Who finds all touchy-feely stuff yucky
He is so uptight
he shakes hands goodnight
He says he’d like kids, but some guys aren’t lucky
