Limericks. (New)

I settled for a bag of spuds
And found that most of them were duds
Infested with slugs
And all sorts of bugs

And found that most of them were duds

I was going to chip them but thought

I was going to chip them but thought
By the time I get t’bugs out there’s nought

I was going to chip them but thought

In some old baking tins

By the time I get t’bugs out there’s nought
So I roasted the skins
In some old baking tins
Just like my old Mum has me taught

I shopped for essentials today

I shopped for essentials today
But I wanted to stay out and play

I shopped for essentials today
But I wanted to stay out and play

I shopped for essentials today
But I wanted to stay out and play
So before too long
I burst into song
And didn’t give a care, come what may.

Enough to fill young ones with fright
The wind did howl and the rain did pour
Is that the Grim Reaper at my door?

T’were a dark and stormy night
Enough to fill young ones with fright
The wind did howl and the rain did pour
Is that the Grim Reaper at my door?
Taking me towards the light?

I’ve done it now, I’m really frit

I’ve done it now, I’m really frit

But have been called a hipocrite
'Cos I’m pumping iron and jogging too
In between trips to the loo

I’ve done it now, I’m really frit
But have been called a hipocrite
'Cos I’m pumping iron and jogging too
In between trips to the loo
Which all makes me feel a bit of a twit!
