Nursery Rhymes for the Post-Modern Era

I WISH I WAS A BANKER

I wish I was a banker,
I’d give it all I’ve got —
A two-car Cadillac garage,
An asphalt parking lot.

I’d fill my asphalt parking lot
With Fords and Oldsmobiles,
And I’d spend all my time inside —
Busy making deals.



APOCALYPSE

Flip, flod, the grocer’s shod.
The butcher has no meat.
My parlor pot is standing dry
And empty in the heat.



RAY WAS A MECHANIC
(a song)

Ray was a mechanic.
His brother was a manic.
He ran around the shop all day
And wouldn’t lay his wrenches down.

Chorus:

Wouldn’t lay his wrenches down,
He wouldn’t lay his wrenches down.
He ran around the shop all day
And wouldn’t lay his wrenches down.

Sorry, I've been away for awhile, lost in the endless folds of my analytical OCD.

Nice to come back and see such a diverse collection of "stuff"!

Just wanted to say again - Thanks!
