Limerick: Once Indian Virgin Met Peking Man
Limerick: Once Indian Virgin met Peking Man
Once Indian Virgin met Peking Man
They spoke together in Malay van
North Koreans wondered
What in her ear thundered
Thai rebels found her fried in Japan.

Do a Good Job
You have very firm convictions;
So, stand strong behind them.
Quality rather than quantity will matter.
You have very firm convictions.
Care not for the van and foolish chatter.
Do a good job tomorrow.
You have very firm convictions;
So, stand strong behind them.

Answers You Seek
These next few days, listen to your friends.
You will find the answers you seek
And make many changes before happily settling down.
These next few days, listen to your friends
For the support and comfort when you smile or frown.
You will never need to worry for a steady income.
These next few days, listen to your friends;
You will find the answers you seek.

There's a Shark In My Soup
'THERE'S A SHARK IN MY SOUP!'
Not an eyebrow was raised,
Not a shudder nor blood-curdling scream.
For in Peking you see, it's a delicacy
To consume shark fin soup it would seem.
But when diners looked round,
With his head in a bowl
Was renowned Casanova - Wang Yong.
And his date said : 'You cheat,! You're a shark on the beat!
So it's in that there bowl you belong!
