LOOKING FOR A MATE
I'm a lazy, crazy lax-a-daisy
Funny kind o' guy
I don't like work but I'm no jerk
And here's the reason why
I tried it out but had some doubt
If that was meant for me
I like to snack and drink some Jack
And watch my color TV
The boss had said get out of bed
And be here by ten of three
He gave me some guff and looked real tough
And that was too much for me
I became a man without a plan
Who was looking for a mate
To share a wanton life with me
Before it was too late
I walked into this Tavern
And looked over at the bar
In hopes a girl that I could love
Would stand out like a star
I'm looking for a certain type
Who'll fit into my scheme
One who wouldn't fool around
And become my life-long dream
She'd have to hate the daily chore
Of working to earn her pay
And simply love to stay at home
And lounge throughout the day
For I'm a man without a plan
Who's looking for a mate
So if you think you fill this bill
Let's go out on a date
I just can't stand a steady job
And want to loaf and play
I'd rather spend my time at home
And be with you each day
So if you have a bank account
That's big enough for two
I'd love to be your lover boy
And spend my life with you
For I'm a man without a plan
Who's looking for a mate
So if you want to try it out
I'm ready and I can't wait

The Poem That Makes No Sense Unless You Know me!
As I lay here and wonder each and every dark and lonely night,
What ever
by T.C Leonard
The Name Game
I met a lady in a bar
A lady with a plan
And when I asked her for her name
She said, "Anita Mann."
I said, "I'm
Nonesense?
Utter nonsense!
They say,
For me to feel this way.
To believe in goddesses and gods
And fairies and leprechauns.
Why
by Paul Lines
GOOD GRIEF
If elephants wore cardboard shoes
And tigers tails were full of holes
If kangaroos could learn the waltz
And monkey
Beware the fuzzy rolligog
That smithers in the myre
(Confuse it not with golliwogs
In fuzzy blue attire)
Beware the rolligogan
