"If Clarence took fair Gwendoline out for an auto ride
And if at 60 miles an hour one kiss to capture tried
And quite forgot the steering gear on her honeyed lips to sup
How soon could 20 men with brooms sweep Clare and Gwennie up?
Oh, oh, oh!
Put down six and carry two
Gee, but this is hard to do
You can think and think and think till your brains are numb
I don’t care what teacher says, I can’t do the sum"
I Can’t Do The Sum (1903) from Babes in Toyland by Victor Herbert
You can’t take three from two,
Two is less than three,
So you look at the four in the tens place.
Now that’s really four tens
So you make it three tens,
Regroup, and you change a ten to ten ones,
And you add 'em to the two and get twelve,
And you take away three, that’s nine.
Is that clear?

“What are you all looking at? You’ve never seen a dude with a pussy before??”
Old Mr. Johnson had troubles of his own,
He had a little cat that wouldn’t leave his home.
Even his whiskers have whiskers!
When he finds that mouse who lives in my pubes, things are going to get really lively here.

cat got your tongue
That cat has the bushiest tail I’ve ever seen.
“Fluffy! So that’s where you been the last seven years!”
“Take the damned pitcher. My pussy is getting the willies.”
Cat pictures bring out the best, making it difficult to choose. Let’s go with
