There was an old dude lived in Syracuse
Went naked outdoors without an excuse
Got sent off to the looney bin,
Joining both his kith and his kin
Far as I know, he was never let loose.

Oh Syracuse, Syracuse,
A bright star born to you.
This genius of three was touched by a muse.
Pi, levers, bringing a king great mirth;
With his brilliance this man moved the earth.
Oh goddess of the moon,
Indelible event!
Your festival doth give cause to swoon.
Circles, a shadow, slain dead in the sand;
A horror to mask even an enemy's land.

I do not know?
Do you know where I live?
I live in Rome
I live in Greece
I live in Egypt too
These three great kingdoms of antiquity
have all faded into obscurity
So I ask you,
do you know where I live?
Syracuse once was a great city
in ancient Rome
Philadelphia once was a great city
in ancient Greece
Memphis once was a great city
in ancient Egypt
Now, do you know where I live?

there will be no Halloween this year as the pumpkins are...ORANGE...
Orange Marmalade is being taken off the shelves lest it lead to conflict in the checkout lines
Syracuse will not longer refer to their football team as the "Orangemen"
Orange NEHI will be banned, all references to it will be removed from literary history
Orange County will be re-named
Poets aren't concerned because it doesn't rhyme with anything

The mayor of the city of Syracuse
Was widely known as a nasty old recluse
He absconded with some funds,
Along with cloistered nuns
And announced that he had a sacred excuse.

The nasty mayor led the nuns astray
Insisting on having his way each day
They prayed for some divine help
To stop him helping himself
Mayor lost ardour and drove them away.
