Perpetual Limerick (:3=

Deal the cards, we're playing poker
Make sure you lose that silly joker
It's not needed, no
It's not required, so
Have a seat & become a chainsmoker.

We're all here so just name your game

We're all here so just name your game
"Five card brag - if it's all the same"

We're all here so just name your game
"Five card brag - if it's all the same"
My best poker face
Hides a queen, king, & ace

We're all here so just name your game
"Five card brag - if it's all the same"
My best poker face
Hides a queen, king, & ace
My royal flush says youll remember my name.

My name is hold 'em Jack

"My name is hold 'em Jack,"
She said as she shuffled the stack.

"My name is hold 'em Jack,"
She said as she shuffled the stack
she put on her shades
and held only spades

"My name is hold 'em Jack,"
She said as she shuffled the stack
she put on her shades
and held only spades
As she gave her knuckles a crack.

'Twas then time to sweeten the pot

'Twas then time to sweeten the pot
Make 'em think I held something I'd not

My house shook from the sonic boom!
Lazarus has emerged from the tomb!
By plan or by chance
The Lord of the Dance
Has returned to the Lim'ricking Room!

'Twas then time to sweeten the pot
Make 'em think I held something I'd not.
Then cards & chips sailed
As my arms & legs flailed
Poe-ker's done ... "In Pace Requiescat."

Who's game for a round of euchre?

Im the type that likes to drink

I'm the type that likes to drink
and think and drink and drink and think
As you see, I like to rhyme
Yes, I do, from time to time

I'm the type that likes to drink
and think and drink and drink and think
As you see, I like to rhyme
Yes, I do, from time to time
Due to drink now I think in the clink.

My cellmate and I have grown close

My cellmate and I have grown close
No small talk (we both are morose)

My cellmate and I have grown close
No small talk (we both are morose)
we help each other every day
What would I do without my Ben Gay?

My cellmate and I have grown close
No small talk (we both are morose)
we help each other every day
What would I do without my Ben Gay?
We both are respectful of each other's privacy including our one shared toilet in the middle of the cell which, when nature calls for one, the other politely looks the other way because to actually watch, point, and stare would be entirely politically incorrect, intrusive, insensitive, and, you know, like totally gross.

A sprightly young lass from New Guinea

A sprightly young lass from New Guinea
Sincerely wished to be skinny

A sprightly young lass from New Guinea
Sincerely wished to be skinny
Unlike everybody there
She felt a lot aware
That they were in Port Moresby

Which was Papua main city
