help
I Eat My Peas With Honey

I smeared my shins with marmalade

Said Paddington one day.

Mr Gruber frowned and shook his head

"Sticky little bears can't play."

I wish I could be somewhere else

And even then, not there
Rosie
Where'er it is I seem to go
Raak
I'd rather be elsewhere.
Simons Mith
I've just come back from nowhere
Rosie
Or Redditch, as it's called

Up there they talk quite funny

As they think "called" rhymes with "carpet".
Eh?

I wish I had a time machine

Like that I once had soon
Simons Mith
This time I'll read the user guide
Phil
No matter how jejune

I wish I were a molecule

I'd rule a landscape miniscule

With my atoms all packed tight

If I had much more money

I'd buy myself some friends

I'd bask in sycophantic praise

September makes me sad

April is quite crappy

But September is rad!
bipolar?
[Phil] Even I've fallen for that one... classic Graeme Garden new definition for it though =)
irach
I wish I was the Taj Mahal
Software
All marble pure and white
Rosie
Best Asian grub in Colliers Wood
Quendalon
It hits the spot just right
[Phil] You are correct! I'm so embarrassed. I feel small -- nay, minuscule. :-)
CdM
I wish to find Nirvana
blamelewis
Or any sort of grunge
Software
Maybe AC/DC
Raak
Or Napalm Black Death Gunge.
Chalky
I'm off to visit Shangri-La
Raak
And learn the secret truth

Of jet lag, crap food, cancelled flights

My bags were still in Cairo

In terminal disarray

I wish I was a marmoset

In marmalade or jam

While I'm reading next door's post
The Cat with the Line

I wish I manned a tower crane

Armed with a wrecking ball

I'd be every building's bane

In Telford, first of all.
Pandering to popular taste, though Swindon, Basingstoke and Crawley would have done.
Simons Mith
A nuclear bomb and Bracknell
Software
Go like toast and jam
Rosie
This should be known more widely
(SM) I used to work there (Met Office) 1964-66. A soulless dump even then.
Chalky
So I'll set up Auto Spam
-
which gets rid of that one - phew
Chalky
I have a proposition
Simons Mith
To end this sentence with
penelope
That's such a supposition
From mister Simons Mith
Oblig.
Rosie
I wish I were a lumberjack
Software
Hanging round a bar
Raak
I'd wear long frilly dresses
Chalky
Just like my dear mama
-
oblig.
Simons Mith
A fact that few consider
Quendalon
Regarding soccer moms
Kim
Is that their little poppets
Software
To matches carry bombs
Simons Mith
Rule one is that Thou Shall Wear Socks
Raak
Rule two is to not catch the Pox
Raak
Ah, this is a limerick, yes?
Scansion Gestapo
Nein.
Rosie
I wish that I were hosiery

Wrapped 'round a woman's thighs

Instead (here's full disclosury)

I just dreams and sighs
Kim
I wish I were a proper noun
And not a proper twit
Bigsmith
I wouldn't mislead my online friends
Software
By pretending I'm a wit
Tuj
I wish I were a raspberry
[Softers]
Precisely
the line I nearly put in yesterday!
Rosie
Blown in your direction
Software
Then I would really signify
Chalky
Contempt for your complexion
Chalky
Spare the rod and spoil the child
Rosie
So whack him with a kipper
penelope
The little sod has run quite wild
Software
Who'd ever have a nipper?
Tuj
I wish I were a bumblebee
Raak
I'd bumble hither-thither
Chalky
Up to the point when you might say
-
go on - swear out loud. You know you want to.
Rosie
Fuck it, then. Why dither?
(Chalks) Oh, I do, but actual invitations are scarce.
irach
I wish I was a potted plant
penelope
A fern or aspidistra
Software
I'd live in conservatory
Chalky
De-dum te-tum de-dah
-
life's too short to faff around with impossible rhymes and nonsensical third lines :-)
Chalky
I wish I had more patience
Bigsmith
With Software's last third line
penelope
I wish I'd thought before I wrote
My fault - I must have had a brain fart
Rosie
Contrition, thus, is mine.
(pen) Which orifice is involved in these eruptions?
Quendalon
I wish I owned a parrot
Software
I wish I owned a parrot
[pen] confession is good for the soul ;o) + More brain farting!
Raak
Oh I wish I owned a parrot
Juxtapose
But I don't.
penelope
I've thought a lot about this line
Tuj
Perhaps I've over-thought
Quendalon
But when I think about my thoughts
irach
I get really overwrought
Rosie
I wish I were a beer mat
Software
For real ale not for lager
Darren
Anything that I soaked up
CdM
Would serve to end this saga
(mercy killing)
Quendalon
I wish I were a Riesling
CdM
Or maybe a Gewurz
Chalky
Instead I'm just a pale Soave
Chalky
Life's
so
unfair, it
hurts
irach
I wish I was a
mezcal
worm

Condensing boozy vapours

In stasis there I would remain
