There was once a lady called Mable
Whose knickers were up to her navel
Her cupboards were bare
There was no underwear
So she nicked them from where she was able...

There once was a hustler named Mable
Her mad skills at pool stuff of fable
Said, “It’s all up to you
But I’ll polish the cue
Of anyone clearing my table.”

My beer-swilling auntie called Mabel
Could drink most blokes under the table
She sups pint after pint
Almost every night
No wonder her legs are unstable!

My unfortunate uncle named Rick
Was endowed with a very small wick
But he was still quite able
To impregnate aunt Mable
Who gave birth to a son they called Dick

Our Paddy had a strong liking for whiskey
When under its influence he got a bit frisky
Didn't think he was able
But impregnated Mable
A reminder that his kind of behavior is risky

There's a fifty stone stripper called Mabel
Loves to practise her moves on her table
She heard a loud crack
Fell off broke her back
Now she cannot get up she's not able.

I ordered lemon chocolate peach berry pie
Giving my waitress a joyful eye
She quickly brought it back to our table.
I saw my aunt’s expression, she is prissy, old Mable.
That’s four pieces of pie! She said indignantly.
It sure is, I agreed, and it is all for me!...

Steven heard his hot neighbor’s unstable,
but he said, “Come for lunch today, Mable.”
Sexy words from her mouth
caused a stirring down south.
They enjoyed more than lunch on the table.

I know a country gal  named Mable
  She is dating her neighbour Gable
     They want to go to a show
   That is in a very small town
  All the traffic was very slow
       The wind was blowing snow
        They really did not know
            If they were unable
           To get to the show
   The drive to the town was slow...

Mable relishes to read
She enjoys the mysteries
As few chapters are read
Every evening the same
The pages are so exciting 
There is a lot of action
A real page turner
It keeps her interested
Her eyes get heavy
They are slowly closing
She wants to stay awake
Only to lose the battle
Then drifts into a sleep
Instead of reading...

Bingo goes where he does;
Throws his money on the table;
Sandra braids her ponytail;
Says she not in love with no man;
All hail, all hail, yeah;
Gambler goes to jail;
Sandra talks to Mable; 
Bingo doesn't get bail;
Shouldn't steal the money;
All hail, all hail, yeah;
Mable ask Sandra isn't she married to Bingo;
Sandra said while touching her long hair no not any more;

cockeyed mice played saxophones at the table
anyway, the loudest one does, the other we call Mable.
they scurry around as fast and far as they are able
stealing from the kitchen, the laundry room and stable.

cockeyed mice love to dance, dart, wiggle and sing.
we see them running in the corners of everything
there is screaming sometimes as they dash and zing.
the soft spoken mouse goes by the name of Wing....

She wore her art in socks and mittens at first
But then she began designing her t-shirts, and even worse…
She decorated her lampshades, or maybe, even better
No one’s house looked like hers, Mable P.T. Fetter

She is odd some said, but they were not friends of mine.
I thought her colorful things were mighty and fine.
Spent time with her, listening to stories that were colorful too.
She was not the norm, so now, wouldn’t you?...

THE WISE OLD DOG

The family Sunday dinner it was spent
In all six family members were present
The dog; ends its begging at the table
A favourite for tip bits was Aunt Mable
But; dinner's over, it's time to scarper
To get away from Uncle Bert the farter
Who would blame it on dog so unfairly
A dog that never farts, if so, it's rarely
Looks at Uncle Bert as knew the score
Has now sneaked out of the back door

I’m with my friend Mable
seated at her dining table; 
her roast turkey’s bone dry
and I can’t understand why!

She cooks for the navy
but she cannot make gravy;
it ends up in lumps
and pours in gloopy clumps!

I’ve made it quite clear
I’ll make gravy next year!

We have one hard rule at our dinner table.
Don’t pay extra attention to the duck said Mable.
I had no idea what this meant, but my hunger was at stake.
They were having a dessert of pineapple upside down cake

So I agreed to not pay any attention to the duck
She sat next to me on the table yelling out “truck!” and “muck!”
She went through the alphabet which meant she used the f’s too.
Ignoring this baby duck now was ever so hard not to do....

Happy birthday! Screamed the shrill little mouse.
Shh!!! Warned the raccoon coming up to the house.
It’s supposed to be a surprise, added a frog named Louse.
Of course the turtle heard them ; his name was Crouse.

Come in! Come in! Welcome he said, showing them his table.
He had been tipped off by his snoopy cousin, Old Mable.
She was there with ice cream, plates, napkins and other things.
Guests exploded voices into song reported his brother, Bings....

Mama Mable made music mellow with mood
But baby boy Bradley bellowed and booed
So sensitively she started singing sweetly
Yet the youngster yowled yearningly

Poor perplexed papa peered and pleaded
“No nocturnal nuisances are needed,”
He hurried through the house, his hefty frame hobbled
Baby boy Bradley basked blissfully with his bedtime bottle

Freddie and Mable they were so in love
He took one look at Mabel’s knockers
And billed and cooed like a silly turtle dove
Oh but in size they were real big shockers
When out shopping for panties and suitable bra
Still Freddie did not falter, Mabel fit him to a tee
“Love in bed you are my twinkling super star
But the telly I will admit, I just cannot possibly see
But precious you will always be my love and my mate
And for bloody earplugs they really are quite great!”...

Ted suffers from 'Looseheel Ball'
It’s driving him clean up the wall
He’s got such an itch
It’s making him twitch
He’s begging the doctor to call

The medic said oh dearie me
This condition I rarely see
Your balls badly twisted
Teds scared eyes soon misted
When  doc says you need surgery

Doc bundles Ted onto the table
and borrows a knife from Aunt Mable
This won’t hurt a bit…
He gives ball a snip
Ted will rise again when he’s able

head was potato
now a member of nato
cats with tomato
(catsup) 

hurrah we just won
the greater glory of God
were Peter's peacocks

an operation
which had been called by putin
special military

will catch a big bass
instead of cutting grass
think that we will pass

with comfort and care
plane took off into midair
with some room to spare

terrible turtle
had found her to be fertile
whose name was myrtle

willing and able
to get elbows off table
by both mike and mable...
