To fetch a pail of water

and Jack became a father

I wish I knew whom to credit for this, as it’s not mine:

Mary had a little lamb,  
A lobster, and some prunes,  
A glass of milk, a pecan pie  
and twenty macaroons

It made the naughty waiters grin  
to see her order so, and  
When they carried Mary out  
Her face was white as snow.

Hi-diddle-diddle, the cat and the fiddle,  
The cow jumped over the moon  
If you dig it now, just drop one more tab  
And you’ll be floating like a balloon!

Humpty Dumpty got in a brawl  
Got his shell broken, he barely could crawl  
All the king’s horses and the king’s men  
Took turns with Humpty again and again!

Bobby Shaftoe went to sea  
Captain’s cabin boy was he  
Brought the captain so much glee  
Pretty Bobby Shaftoe!

What are little boys made of?  
What are little boys made of?  
Come into the barn, little girl, and you’ll see  
Just what little boys are made of!

Rub-a-dub-dub  
Three men in a tub  
And they all had plenty to share!  
The gymnast, the skater, the room decorator –  
They went all around the celestial equator  
'Twas enough to make Jesse Helms stare!

Higglety, pigglety, my black hen  
She lays down with gentlemen  
Gentlemen pay me every day  
Down with my black hen to lay  
Sometimes nine, and sometimes ten  
Higglety, pigglety, my black hen

When the boys came out to play  
he kissed them too 'cause he was gay.

Do you know McGuffin Man?  
McGuffin Man, McGuffin Man?  
Do you know McGuffin Man,  
Who lives on Drury Lane?  
He’s chasing down a Maltese bird  
A magic ring, a phoenix turd,  
And every plot device that soothes  
A lazy writer’s brain

Baa, baa, black sheep  
Bet you’re quite a trull!  
Yes sir, yes sir,  
That’s no bull!  
Once with my master,  
Twice with my dame,  
And a freebie for the little boy  
Who lives down the lane!

Here’s an old one from _Mad_ magazine:

There was a crooked man  
And he had a crooked laugh  
And he ran a crooked office  
And he hired a crooked staff  
He served a crooked term  
And he did a crooked job  
And rammed a lot of crooked bills through  
For a crooked local mob  
Why back the crooked man  
When his crooked ways you see?  
Because the rival candidate  
Is crookeder than he!

Fiddle de dee, fiddle de dee  
The fly has married the bumblebee  
The race-mixing shits  
Soon hung from a tree

Snoop Doggy Dogg performs ‘This Ol’ Man"

This ol’ man, he played one  
He played knick-knack on my thumb  
Wit’ a knick-knack, paddywhack  
Give a Dogg a … BONE.  
This ol’ man came rollin’ home. (uh-huh, uh-huh)

This ol’ man, he played two  
He played knick-knack wit’ my shoe  
Wit’ a knick-knack, booty-whack  
Loop and a… PASS.  
This ol’ man betta watch his ass. (hell, yeah!)

This ol’ man, he played three  
… lost his mind and he tried to play ME  
So took my backhand, made sure I clipped him  
Took out my nine then I pistol-whipped him.  
Flipped him over, stomped his throat  
Cryin and bleedin… it was all he wrote  
Knack-knick wit’ an ass kick booty whack paddy  
Tell me ol’ man… who’s your daddy?

This old man, his day is finished  
Ran him outta Dodge with his clout diminished  
Wit a knick-knack, fatty-whack,  
Punks screamin’ "Truce!  
Snoop Dogg got the juice.

Little King Pippin, he built a great hall  
Pie-crust and pastry-crust, that was the wall  
The birds and the cockroaches turned his hall brown  
And his mad, inbred dynasty came tumbling down!

One moisty, misty morning,  
When cloudy was the weather,  
I chanced to meet an old man  
Clothed all in leather  
He offered me some candy,  
Rubbed his balls against my chin,  
Saying, “Take it all, bitch!”  
And “Take it all, bitch!”  
And “Take it all, bitch” again!

If I had a donkey  
That wouldn’t go  
Do you think I’d beat him?  
Oh, no, no!  
I’d place a call  
To a man I know,  
And to dogfood and glue  
My donkey would go

Mary, Mary, quite contrary,  
How does your garden grow?  
With silver bells and cockleshells,  
And pretty maids all in a row.

\*\*"This breaking news. \*\*  
Police have been summon to the home of a woman named Mary, last name unknown, where gardeners hired by her have found what purports to be \*several human skeletons \* buried in neatly in a row.  
The gardners had been told to avoid the areas that had been marked off with bells and seashells, but had inadvertently dug there when the shells & bells had been covered up by newly laid compose.  
Police suspect that the remains are of several missing young Gooseland women, who were previously thought to be victims of the Huff-n-Puff/Three Little Pigs killer. " :eek:

Sir Mix A Lot could totally sing this.  
Roughly to the tune of “My Hooptie.”

There was a crooked man  
Who led a crooked life  
He made crooked love  
To another crook’s wife  
Nailed her little crooked ass  
Against the crooked wall  
And the crooked carpet floor  
And the crooked long hall  
Did nasty crooked business  
On the crooked hall stair  
Her crooked little toes  
Curled in the crooked air  
Now crooked rumors flew  
To the first crook’s ear  
The crooked man knew  
Time to crooked disappear  
He crookedly schemed  
For a wad of crooked loot  
He bought a crooked gun  
And a crooked-zoot suit  
Drove a crooked-out car  
Going crooked “bye-bye!”  
Cuz the other crooked man  
Paid a crooked drive-by  
So a crooked hit-crew  
Caught the crooked man’s trail  
His few crooked options  
Were crooked as hell  
They had crooked-ass guns  
In their crooked crook laps  
And crooked AKs  
Won in crooked games of craps  
He said, Crook this  
And crooked by the road  
Laid crooked dynamite  
To crookedly explode  
He was crooked and nervous  
Running out of crooked time  
He give crooked service  
Crooked life on the line  
Soon the crooked hit crew  
Came into crooked sight  
[Crooked trigger went "Boom!  
Goes the crooked dynamite.](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=6104832&postcount=1)  
The crooked man escaped  
Singing this crooked song:  
“Crooked bitches ain’t worth  
All this crooked ass to bone!  
All this crooked ass to bone!  
Al this ass to bone!  
Crook crook crook crooked  
All this crooked ass to bone!”

This was from MAD Magazine - I can’t remember if it was _Violent Mother Goose_ or _Physical Fitness Mother Goose_, cuz it contains a bit of both:

Little Jack Horner  
While rounding a corner  
Is met by a mugger who states  
“Hand over your cash,  
Or your head I will smash!”  
Which is not the most pleasant of fates

Little Jack Horner  
Takes off from the corner  
In hopes of outracing disaster  
But though he’s in shape  
He won’t make his excape  
'Cause the mugger’s a runner … but faster

Little Miss Muffet sat on a tuffet,  
her clothes all tattered and torn.  
It wasn’t the spider that crept beside her,  
But Little Boy Blue and his horn.

Simple Simon met a Pieman,  
going to the fair.  
Said Simple Simon to the Pieman,  
What have you got there?  
Said the Pieman unto Simon,  
Pies, you dickhead.

Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall  
Humpty Dumpty had a great fall.  
All the kings horses and all the kings men,  
said “F\*\*k him, He’s only an egg.”

Mary had a little lamb  
It ran into a pylon.  
10,000 volts went up it’s ass  
and turned it’s wool to nylon

Jack and Jill Went up the hill  
to have little fun.  
Jill, that dill, forgot her pill  
and now they have a son.

Old Mother Hubbard went to the cupboard  
to fetch her poor dog a bone.  
When she bent over Rover took over,  
And gave her a bone of his own.

Mary Mary, quite contrary,  
how does your garden grow?  
With silverbells and cockleshells  
and one f\*\*king petunia.

There once was a girl with a strawberry curl  
right in the middle of her forehead  
When she was good, she was very, very good  
and when she was bad she made $500 a night.

Mary had a little skirt  
with splits right up the sides  
and every time that Mary walked  
the boys could see her thighs  
Mary had another skirt  
twas split right up the front  
…but she didn’t wear that one very often

It jumped into a butcher’s shop  
and now it’s in a pie.
