To Dear Sweet Mrs. Horton
I have always loved writhing
And she is the reason
She taught me that writhing
Is really so pleasing
But one day she did confuse me
After days and days of teaching English
She bought up Ogden Nash
And he became my teacher
Now what rhyme beside trash
If I Get Chocolate Fever
Its been real, real good
To be seeking out the meal
Which when chocolate
Its really good to feel
on my tongue
If I’m not dumb
I will only need her
To cure my chocolate fever
Melt it off or lick it down
But don’t throw it all around
For there is litter best than
Having chocolate fever
Guests appear on Leno and Letterman
And they have a good time
But I’d stay home with chocolate fear
That’s so good in my mind
Carol Wolfe Is A Fox
Carol Wolfe is a fox
What do you think about that
I think she’s cute in that monkey suit
And she is not fat
She has always been
Really nice to me
But what she did when I was gone
She did never give way
When I do eat lunch with her
I don’t eat her lunch
I don’t even think of it
Of else I’d want to munch
I’ve never put a hand on her
Never kissed her eye brows
Never been out farming
Nor milking all them cows
Nor shall I ever
Go milking at a cow
Never will I ever
Stoke her pretty brow
And never, never will I ever
Though I am willing to try
