Our University song

The poem before the song...

Staring at the flickering screen
my eyes begin to numb
I go and grab some more caffeine
what have I now done
an office chair at home so plush
tucked in a corner space
just sitting here when came a rush
brought a smile right to my face
its 1 AM this days been long
its time I go to bed
I'll close this out with a new song
that just popped in my head


Our University song

That "hooked on meat" is a true desire
ah yes, flame kissed by the open fire
not only steaks but any choice cut
from the tenderloin to even the rump/butt
chicken, lamb maybe fish or hotdogs
I scarf them down like a herd of hogs
now this season grilling in the sun
is going to be that much more fun
for now I know some more on guitar
at outdoor parties I can be a star

jamming to some oldies tune
sliding too with my silver spoon
I can see the ladies almost swoon
oh how summer can't come too soon

I'm struggling with my recording software
Over there where Tekker cares
Sorting out our silly errors
And trying to save us from our terrors
So, I'll change my focus back to food
That will put me in a better mood:

I like eating, yes I do
I do it more and more
If I keep on, with eating like this
I won't fit through the door.

I like sausages for tea
With Shepherd's pie on Sunday
Each day it seems, there's more of me
Perhaps I'll burst on Monday.

Food it does not make you fat
it's exercise that one must lack
never blame a sandwich stack
I read that somewhere that's a fact
my weight watching has gone slack
I used to bike but now I snack
my front's as big as my bottom back
if I don't eat my mood turns black
I'm off to MickyD's for a triple pepperjack
oh my poor rhymes.....I'm such a hack

How many stacks does a fat hack pack
When fat hack's back feels peckish?
As many as a fat cat's back could pack
Or a fat cat's stack plus relish.

A fat hack can pack packs of stacks
well maybe just a bit I over embellish
pack a fat cat in a backpack that is whack
better to serve it minced in the dog's dish

Better watch out for your hack back, Kenny
Our Aunt Doty is worth a penny
And if she catches you hacking cats
Of Kenny, there won't be many - or any?

Our Aunt Doty is a super gal
how could she off a GFB&B pal?
she know's it's in fun I jest
just in case....Doty your the best!
besides I'm so big I must confide
where would a dead, cat killing fatbackhack she hide?

That certainly is a good question
But the answer's far from clear
Aunt Doty can see round corners
But my oh my, what a dear

I eat loads of meat and stuff
But never put on weight
When I walk near drains
I have to avoid the grate
Or end up in the sewer
With all that nasty waste
Now I've mentioned that
For food I've lost the taste

Eating stuff is a wonderful thing
When things turn rough, or you need a fling
Music can also, fatten the soul
Or warm you up, if you're feeling cold.

Singing out loud is good as well
And it don't even matter, if it isn't swell
I like to sing sad songs, best of all
But I generally don't sing, if I'm down at the mall
It might cause a ruckus, and cause people to cuss
Some people can make such a terrible fuss!
When all I want, is to express my joy -
But I always take care, so as not to annoy.

I can't help but notice, dear Sailor Chris
That you have developed a 'thing' for sewige!
It keeps cropping up, day after day
It's time to get sewage out of the way.

I know it's not, for me to say, Chris
But I recommend, you give sewage a miss!
Then your life will be full of sweet smelling bliss
And you never know, you might get a kiss
From your nearest and dearest, or even a tryst.

Perhaps you're a prince, disguised as a frog
As you sit there croaking on top of a log?
Perhaps you daren't tell us? (its been ever since
You dived into the drain, in search of your hiss).

Aarp!

PS. I've just sailed into page 14.

Ok I'll avoid the drains
I'll never talk of them again
Didn't mean to keep
Mentioning it, now I've
Dropped myself in the
Meantime I'll switch
To other topics
Above the ground
And less myopic
I liked the rhyme
Of Tryst with Kiss
A prince would be
My Wife's dearest Wish
But unfortunately
She's stuck with me
The mirror is my biggest fan
In there I am a handsome man
The vision in the looking glass
Really has a touch of class
But then again it might Just be
Another case of vanity
I see a Prince who makes girls simper
My Wife may see a frog on Timber
I've never asked her never will
She'd be dead already if looks could kill


You don't stop laughing when you grow old; you grow old when you stop laughing.

Kiss with tryst is an OK rhyme
But kiss with Chris is better
And if you keep away from slime
You could be a new trend setter
Then next of kin would sport big grins
And tryst with Chris despite his sins
Of searching here and searching there
To find his hiss – no place was spared.

He tracked it down and buried it
And now he needn’t smell of
Deodorant and other stuff
Because he’s mentioned drains enough.

But that’s a shame - I laughed to read
About you being as thin as a reed
And how you might fall through the grid
They put on drains to form the lid.

I laughed so much, that some might say
I laughed like a drain, in a kind of way
So drains and sewage have their place
But not, of you please, upon the face -
But, it’s not a sound or look that pleases
And can result sometimes in sneezes
So don’t abandon drains altogether
They can tickle the wit, as with a feather
To cause a smile in stormy weather.

The image you see in your mirror is odd
If I look in mine, I see some bod
That isn’t me at all - it’s true!
There’s someone there, completely new
That’s why I avoid them like the plague
‘Cos former looks and beauty fade
And now some other image stares
Back at me, and then it glares:
“Who are you! And what have you done
With Carol, who always was the one,
To reflect in me a vision splendid?
But now it seems, that story’s ended
Now some old crone has took her place-
How dare you come and steal her face!”

Sewer kisses down the drain
something smells out of place
leaves a pungent taste of pain
glad you can't see my face

having a tryst with next of kin
man what a backwoods thought
and to say it all with a grin
was much more than I sought

sad to say this thread has veered
unto a worriesome sorry path
to read them twice, a job I feared
now I need a mid-week bath

How bout butterflies or a daisy
to change the tide, lets say
rhyme with those and don't get lazy
save trash talking for another day

Wishing in a mirror I see
as some of you have wrote
here's a tip straight from me
you may want to make a note

A mirror will only show
flaws in the light of day
you can fool it, I hope you know
just look the other way

Or use it only in the dark
it will never hurt your soul
and skin that looks like bark
you'll think is just a mole

Thanks for the tip there, Kenny
That could save a pretty penny
Save us from the surgeon's knife,
And cause us less financial strife.

Hmmm,
Butterflies and daisies is your wish
They might make a tasty dish
Served with lettuce and a sauce
Unless you're vegetarian, of course.

How about this?

Constance Crow
Flew too low
Scared the duck
And stubbed her toe

Duck said, "Quack!"
And 'What was that?"
Then, "Really Constance -
You're far too fat!"
