Old Brutus, he worked on the dock  
Gutting carp he yearned to just talk  
To The Dope he did hie  
But he found by and by  
In real life he’d be kicked in the cock\*

There once was a die-hard “Die Hard” fan  
Equipped with a riddle and gas can  
To the fountain he hustled  
But the bomb it got justled  
They could fit his remains in a dustpan

By her, a strip would be taken  
Then placed in her hole  
Till she screamed “Oh my soul!”,  
But most folks felt she was fakin’.

Mandy was quite a dumb chick,  
With all the brains of a guitar pick.  
Her man plied her with wine,  
And then bid her recline,  
So that his dear was laid out like a salt lick.

He proceeded to strum on her torso,  
Drawing a low hum, and then a bit more so.  
When he hit her C-sharp,  
She thrummed like a harp,  
In dulcet tones, most _amoroso_.

He moved on, down and up, on her body,  
Hearing whimpers, and then a threnody.  
As she writhed on the mattress,  
He composed chords on her fretless  
Body with the _elan_ of Carlo Menotti.  
Ooh, I forgot to supply a starter line!

Let’s talk about Dustin Diamond  
[Seems he’s broke](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dustin_Diamond#Supposed_debt), he ain’t got a dime and  
Since _Saved by the Bell_  
He’s not done too well  
But at least that afro’s subsided.  
Next:

A customs inspector named Cholmondely…

:dubious: You wouldn’t be trying to kill the thread, would you, **Colophon**?

A customs inspector named Cholmondely  
Likes to perform his duties most doggedly,  
For it gives him a thrill  
To see each panty and pill  
That travellers bring and try to take away.

There once was a lonely loan officer:  
Spent most of her nights in the office. Her

Shot up once she undressed -  
That made guys sit up and notice her!

Here you go:

A customs inspector named Cholmondely,  
OVER-inspected the uncustomarily colmondely.  
So the doc gave a quick stick  
Of novocaine to his prick.  
Now when Cholmondely comes, he comes nolmondely!

The farmer’s fine pair of oxen  
Grew up, with balls out and their cocks in.  
As they plowed near the cows,  
They became so aroused,  
The farmer scrapped his plough for its tin.

He’d work on their tits  
and other naughty bits  
Then they’d go for a ride in his Lotus
