Too much spawning can leave you quite tired
Coming down from being real wired!

Coming down from being real wired!
So chill with a cool
Beer by the pool

Before you know, once more you're inspired.

These are the times she warned us about
And we won't run around, scream or shout
For two minutes, today
With our silence, we pray
Wrongheadedness will be rooted out.

If "quite" had been used
The line would have fused
And you wouldn't have looked such a goon.

A man with a thick gnarly stick
Is the bouncer outside the Old Vic

A man with a thick gnarly stick
Is the bouncer outside the Old Vic
When he whirls it about to give you a clout
Make sure he misses your dick.

Spendius left us no lead line
So just make up something like mine
While he's no old codger
But a great stick dodger
I'll run with the rythym so fine

Hope Mctag will have a grand trip

Maybe he will ride on a very big ship

Mctag will have a grand trip
He'll ride on a very big ship
If he spews in a bag
It rhymes with Mctag
But watch out if he gives one a rip.

Being only newly hatched
My new roof is barely thatched
With no foundation
Standing ovation
Embracing awe is attached

Yes I did, round the coast, on a ship
Coming from France I sailed
With the wind at our tail
Which made the boat go with some zip

Cherbourg was great, I must say
And the weather was sunny all day

Cherbourg was great, I must say
And the weather was sunny all day
while in England it rained
so I'm feeling quite pained
while Chirac crowed hip hip hooray

Chirac doesn't like the anglais

have I misunderstood something? I thought limericks were metered count.....they are fun but, also require a bit more work at keeping the count in balance.....maybe I am off the base and tagged out.

"Off the base and tagged out"...translation please?

The limerick form does have a strict metre, it's true, and some here are better at keeping to it than others.

I think the last couple of efforts were okay, more or less...(he finished limply)
