Back, Sack and Crack

The Mayor of Toronto fought back/
Denying he ever smoked crack/
But now there’s a vid/
Suggesting he did/
He may soon be facing the sack.///

Putting the Pee in PC

There once was a make of PC/

Whose odour evoked feline pee/

Perhaps this foul smell/

On laptops from Dell/

Was made by the forward slash key.///

Somalia’s fierce buccaneers/

Have terribly sensitive ears – /

To drive them away/

Ships’ officers play/

The music of Ms @britneyspears. ///

Hey Jude, Don’t Make it Bad

There was a big storm named St Jude/

Whose power could not be subdued/

It upended trees/

And buses with ease/

And left many travel plans screwed.

Toodle-Lou

So RIP music man Lou/
Your walk on the wild side is thru/
Your satellite’s gone/
Your Perfect Day done/
But we’re glad we spent it with you.

Crap Shoot

A fellow in Norway was shot/

While having a sit on the pot./

A man hunting moose/

Took aim and let loose,/

But twas the poor crapper he got.

Dirty Buggers

The NSA tapped Merkel’s cell
So she gave the White House a bell.
Don’t make a big drama
Said Barack Obama 
We all know you’re at it as well!

Bishop Bashed

Franz-Peter, the Bishop of Bling/
Whose bathroom was fit for a king/
Offended the Pope/
And now has to hope/
For pardon, while kissing the ring.
