help
And so it begins....

Raak
For convention it cared not a fig
Rosie
For instance, its snout
Software
would run like a spout
Marc
And its butt was enormously big.
Marc
While preparing my sugar cured ham
Pablo
I thought I would use damson jam
Raak
'Tis both piquant and sweet
Giertrud
And I do love to eat
Stevie
Jam-ham a-la damson, by damn!
Stevie
While watching a Colin Firth flick
Phil
He started to get on my wick
Kim
His monotonous voice
Marc
Reading novels by J a m e s J o y c e
blamelewis
Make a portrait of me being sick
[Marc] Just "Joyce" would have scanned better, perhaps?
Marc :-)
Raak
I don't want to get out of bed
penelope
I'd rather stay tucked in instead
Pablo
Being all safe and warm
Rosie
And farting a storm
Marc
Leaving blankets and sheets widely spread.
Pablo
As the autumnal mists descend
Raak
O'er the lea the kine their slow way wend
Marc
The ploughman homeward plods
Elderly
While worshiping his Gods
Thomas Gray
And leaves the world to darkness m'friend...

Stevie
Oh goody, more fog o'er the land
Rosie
So thick that you can't see your hand
as people say....
penelope
Don't use your fog lights
would seem to be the rule, especially for silver or grey cars
Marc
And don't dress in whites
Knobbly
But drive home at 60 as planned
Underliner
Marc
As a senior player I think,
Kim
Young Rosie should give up the drink
Software
Such libelous chat
Rosie
Ignores the fact that
Phil
He's not drite the thunk that you quink
Marc
I once had a wee dram too much
Rosie
The courage it gave me was Dutch
Hidden text
Hello, pen.
Stevie
I confronted a copper
Kim
And riled him up proper
Chalky
By booting his hat into touch
penelope
But now I am
perfectly
merry
Marc
'cause I'm soaking my muesli in sherry
Pablo
I have gin with my chips
Raak
And a song on my lips
Phil
That I learnt from a young Mary Berry
Tuj
I pogoed again, down the road
Marc
Jumping just like a green, horny toad
Stevie
Quite why, I don't know
Rosie
But it does go to show
Software
With long springy legs I'm bestowed
Stevie
"Up, up and away!" the man cried
Rosie
"Gravity, it shall be defied"
Pablo
With a mighty great leap
Raak
He collapsed in a heap
Marc
Levitated - and finally died...
penelope
I could do that just one more time
Phil
But this time perform it in mime
Kim
With music by Sting
Software
Or Wag-n-er's ring
Raak
Or "Buddy, can you spare a dime?"
penelope
I have no idea what this could
Raak
have been meant to do, nor what it would
Phil
But I think that it might
Pablo
expire by tonight
Marc
unless otherwise stated - stay for good.
Giertrud
If it is dark during the day
penelope
[Gietrud] Excuse me, but I think your metre needs adjusting
Giertrud - If it remains dark in the day
Penelope - There'll no chance for us to make hay
Stevie
[penelope] Excuse me, but I think your metre needs adjusting:
penelope - There'll be no chance for us to make hay
Stevie - Then again, I'm no farmer
Rosie
But still quite a charmer
Hidden text
Believe that, you'll believe anything.
Marc
And I lay the damsels - if they pay...
Marc
The wine of the day is Chablis
Raak
But waiter! My soup! There's a flea!
Pablo
On my spoon there's a bug!
Phil
There's a wasp in my mug
Stevie
I wonder what lurks in the brie?
penelope
The beast in the cheese is extinct
Phil
But the rat in the crackers just winked!
Pablo
And the worm in the peas
Software
Has knobbly knees
Stevie
So I wonder: Is L.S.D. linked?
Phil
[Stevie et al.] Jolly well done!
Marc
Dear Jedi, I'm writing this note:
Raak
I think we should all have a vote
Pablo
About using the Force
Software
(Caref'ly of course)
Stevie
Or a bucket to bail out this boat
[Pablo] "Force" was an unkind rhyme to offer another
penelope
Be gentle when off'ring a rhyme
Rosie
No
oranges
please; it's a crime
Kim
And please let it scan
Raak
Just as well as it can
Marc
Then forever will bells and gongs chime!
Marc
I have planned to take up my qi gong
Pablo
And this, I don't think, is too wrong
Raak
My hara is sound
Anna
And both feet on the ground
Wong
I can feel there's new blood in my dong.
Marc
Mister Wong in your eyes I can see
Raak
That though old, you stand firm as a tree
gil
'Acupuncture' you say
Software
Is why you stay
Raak
[Software] Might it be "the reason" instead of "why"?
Pablo
up all night on just one cup of tea.
Software
A buxom showgirl from Brazil
(trad)
Marc
Said her boobs had got valves for refill
Raak
The left dispensed beer
Pablo
But the right looked quite queer
Stevie
And t'would only produce rancid swill
Stevie
Red Barrel, Red Barrel,
Red Barrel men said "the same again"
Took a fistful of flavour
First class beer!
Phil
[Stevie] I'm considering buying
this glass
and installing it in my local as "Phil's glass", for purely ironic purposes, as the pub has dozens of CAMRA awards.
Stevie
[Phil] Sweet Theakston's on a Bike! That's an ugly glass
without
the logo!
Stevie
Last night as I sat in the snug
gil
A banking clerk gave me a hug
Rosie
So not every banker
Phil
Is riddled with rancour
Software
But was nevertheless very smug
Stevie
In a small pub in Cornwall I found
Phil
Some scrumpy for under a pound
gil
This dangerous tipple
Rosie
Rots the brain, so UKIP'll
Not to be opened until the end.
Hidden text
Be buying ev'ry voter a round.
Marc
Make sure that the Union is drowned...
Marc
"Mister Nigel, I think you are wrong,"
New Deal
Claiming 'Arbeit macht frei' was a song
That the Nazis once sang
When a Jew they had hang
And that Cameron now sings along
Marc
It's December and Santa's awake
[New Deal]Why not try http://www.rab.org.uk/mc/mc.php?tid=138#bottom ?
penelope
to the fraudsters and makers of fake
unifini..
Kim
X-Box Ones, PS4s
Stevie
And it sure gives him pause
unfinity or thinks
Pablo
to think of these crooks on the make.
Stevie
My old Van Der Graaf's on the blink
Marc
With a megavolt spark that is pink
penelope
It's stopped making static
Pablo
Its behaviour's erratic
gil
And the noise... you can't hear yourself think!
