Here’s mine:

A filthy young pervert from Avebury  
Had a fetish extremely unsavoury  
With demonic howls  
He would bugger young owls  
That he bred in an underground aviary

From deep in the crypt at St. Giles,  
Came a scream that resounded for miles.  
Said the vicar “good gracious!  
Has Father Ignatious  
Forgotten the Bishop has piles?”

There was a young man from Nepal,  
Who had a mathematical ball.  
(w[sup]3[/sup] + 5)/8 = 4/3√0.

The cube of its weight  
Plus five, over eight,  
Is four-thirds the root of fuck-all.

An impetuous couple named Kelley,  
Now go thru life belly to belly,

They used library paste,  
Instead of petroleum jelly.

[/QUOTE]

A classic. The version I heard was:

There once was a girl named Jill  
Who used dynamite for a thrill  
They found her vagina  
In North Carolina  
And bits of her tits in Brazil.

I like the alliteration of ‘bits of her tits’. Another version had Jill hailing from Dallas. She used dynamite for a phallus.

I don’t know that I have a favourite limerick, but these to are usually the first to come to my mind:

There was a young man from Australia  
Who painted his ass like a dahlia  
The colours were fine  
Likewise, the design  
But the aroma, not _that_ was a failure!

(Best read in an Australian accent. I assume the man painted his donkey, but it could have been his arse as opposed to his ass. From _Breaker Morant_.)

There was a young couple from Florida  
Whose passion grew steadily torrider  
They were planning to sin  
In a room at an inn  
Who could wait? So they screwed in the corridor!

EDIT:

I heard this one _once_ about 20 years ago, and I could only remember the first two lines. The Internet is a wonderful thing.

There was a young girl from New Zealand  
Who discovered a wonderful feeling  
She laid on her back  
And tickled her crack  
And pissed all over the ceiling!

Now if only I could find grandpa’s non-limerick that starts ‘When you’re eighty-two and your dick turns blue and you can’t pee no more…’

There once was a guy named Dave,  
Who dug up a whore from a grave.  
She was moldy and shitty,  
And only had one titty  
But look at the money he saved!

I like:

There was an old woman from Slough  
Who had an unfortunate cough  
She wasn’t to know  
It would last until now  
And we certainly hope she pulls through.

And:

There was a young man from St Bees  
Who was stung on the nose by a wasp  
When asked “did it hurt?”  
He said “Yes, it did!”  
“But I’m so glad it wasn’t a hornet!”

A girl who weighed many an oz.  
Used language I dare not pronoz.  
When a guy (for a dare)  
Screwed the legs off her chair  
Just to see - so he said - if she’d boz.!

A chippie named Carol in Maryland

To stroke off her guys,  
Who refer to it as “getting Carolyned.”

There once was a man from Assizes  
Whose balls were of two different sizes  
One ball was small  
Almost no ball at all  
The other was large and won prizes

An eager young priest from Dundee  
Was fucking a nun in a tree  
He buggered her ass  
And performed a high mass  
That even the pope came to see

The last time I dined with the king  
He did an unusual thing  
He stood on a stool  
And pulled out his tool  
And said, “If I play, will you sing?”

A young man from Boston, Mass  
Had balls that were made out of brass  
When they’d bang together  
They’d play “Stormy Weather”  
And lightning’d shoot out of his ass.

Some feeeelthy ones:

There was a young girl from the Azores  
Whose cunt was all covered in sores  
The dogs in the street  
Used to lick the green meat  
That hung, festooned, from her drawers

There was a young fellow from Perth  
The filthiest bastard on Earth  
When his wife was confined  
He pulled down the blind  
And devoured the afterbirth

There was a young man from the Cape  
Who fucked a Barbary ape  
The ape cried, “You fool!  
You’ve twisted your tool!  
And bent my arsehole out of shape.”
