A little lizard, in the hot sun
Stocking up on his tan, and was nearly done
Wondering what felonious trick a small boy intended to play
Decided to wimp out, and whisked away

paleontology
Devonshire cream
thimble
metronome
I often stick an extra A in Palaeontology
Like sticking a finger in Devonshire cream or a nose into otorhinolaryngology.
I saw a picture on a thimble of a garden gnome
In the same antique shop as a dusty metronome.

Hoover

wall
Don't forget to hoover under
The occasional table; I made a blunder
And hoovered under the general's wheel chair for hours
Trying to rid the wall-to-wall carpet of its flowers.
fairy
kink
lemon
whirl
Fairy Liquid, liberally applied
Will take the kink from rhinoceros hide
While a lemon will polish a copper penny-
Give it a whirl, it's as good as any.

coffee
Wembley has a nice new stadium which you can see from my London nest
And hear when the wind is blowing in the right direction which is west.
Just like a fish without a splash
So a day without coffee is lacking in dash.

A yacht on the ocean
Is a good birthday notion
A beagle runs in a pack
While a futon's bad for your back

drilling rig
In his cowhide boots McTag looked virile
He straddled a mustang and fired at a squirrel;
The squirrel got mad and threw a pebble or twig
So McT went back to the peace and quiet of the drilling rig.

The asparagus season must be over now
Kitchen paper's not enough to clean up after a cow
A parrot on his shoulder nipped Long John's ear
You think that's a myth? Get out of here!

My Skoda can beat your Ferrari with ease
Like a wainscot can beat a wallpaper frieze.
My acne disappeared
When I applied dried irokowood to my incipient beard.

Latex puppets were a hit
Satirical punishment seemed to fit
I wish all politicans held to ridicule...
Does a belle summon coutesans to school?

hedgerow
Pickled herrings abound in the far north
So put on the brake at the Firth of Forth
If you don't want to risk getting them in your pot.
Better find a rabbit in a hedgerow than accept a herring from a Scot.

Medicament treating yellow blooms
Kingly gardens Kensington and St James
Predicament mighty mange to blame

Biro made cheap pens for all
Throw that computer at the wall
Flower beds are colourful at this time of year
And if you don't drink your soup, I'll pour it in your ear.

A dinosaur is a terrible lizard, in Greek,
And Dynamo, an anagram of Monday, is also a football team mainly in Soviet speak
Dinah Shore sings dixieland and blues at night:
She's pure dynamite.
melon
murder
muskrat
milliner
My foe threw a hammer, right at my melon.
I said, "I'll have you for attempted murder, you felon!"
But first, to cover my bruise, I must hunt a muskrat,
to take to the milliner for to make me a hat.

Juicy fresh oranges, they're my favourite
I've a new brick wall, but now I've got to pay for it
Daffodils toss their heads in sprightly dance
And soup called soupe you can get in France

A haddock is a type of fish
which one can serve in a football-shaped dish.
Planning an outdoor festival, one can make a killing
so long as they heed the meteorology reports of Tom Skilling.

Candle in the Wind- a funeral oration
A quagmire of an event which gripped a nation
A martial arts expert might be a ninja
But you likened Cassius Clay to a butterfly, didn' ya?

Just before Kenny had the bee sting
I was admiring the lily under the awning
In the midsummer haze.
Now Kenny's cheek is covered in a sort of antiseptic veneer, or glaze.
