A criminal type name of Potter
Was wed to a schemer and plotter;
He vowed that if she
Undid him, that he
Would either divorce or garrotte her.

A dodgy young shepherd from Greece
Who wanted his flock to increase
Just stole a few rams
Along with some lambs
But got nicked by the local police.

A poor, but bright, pilot named Chet
Designed a brand new type of jet;
But after it was made
The bill was not paid
Which left him in serious debt.

There is a young man from Montrose
Who possesses a peculiar nose;
He cannot abide
With it bent to one side,
And it hurts very much when he blows.

There is a young man from Iran
Who's milk always spills from the pan,
His name is Ellias
He stands on a bias
And that's how his troubles began.

There once was a man from Lorraine
Who was born with a dynamic brain;
To no one's surprise
When it tripled in size
To move him they needed a crane.

There was a young man from Montrose
Who counted by fingers and toes;
But try as he may
He miscounted one day
When a finger got stuck up his nose.

There once was a man from Peru
Who trapped a small stone in his shoe;
It felt like a whopper
As he came a cropper
Then proceeded to turn the air blue.

There was a young lady named Jen
Who saw, on a visit, Big Ben;
She climbed to the bell
Which ached every cell
And she swore she'd not do it again.

There once was a man from Quebec
Who's chickens had no need to peck;
A lady named Betty
Hand fed them spaghetti
As they lay on their backs on the deck.
