That there have been some times
That my Really Awful Rhymes
Have raised an awful groan
Is truly quite well known
Well, this should come as no surprise
And I will not apologise,
For, from them, groans have been my aim;
And not weak laughs from joking tame.
I also make a point
With things found out of joint,
Such as to say all day
When thought has gone astray:
‘You know;’ well, if so, then why mention,
When, actually, your intention
To impart knowledge not in my possession,
And not extract a spurious confession?
Tonight on TV show
There was a man who’d go
‘You know’, until a brick,
Hurled at him very quick,
Is something that I longed to do,
Or pour hot oil into his shoe
To bring to a halt any resumption
Of any such fatuous assumption.

Do you even own a meat cleaver?
Just in case, I’m investing in chainmail garments.
