Dada Da Dada Da Dum

From the 95,000 limericks in the Jim McWilliam collection, endless new limericks can be created through Queneau assembly. Here are ten.

There was once an excessively poor
Who had delusions of grandeur.
The job she will render
Will only engender
That made him a keen, limp voyeur.
My honey, I don't think you've met.
Still hasn't shown herself yet.
My friends looked at me
"But first I must see"
But, I couldn't see the TV set.
They set up a partisan sting
With the hopes and the joys it can bring.
Though you may look cuter
To act as computer
"It's so sore, I can't powder the thing!"
An English professor named Mae
Has a hubby reluctant to lay.
A habit which filled
The wine was well chilled.
So that's quite enough for today.
The Colchester Road that I know
These people decided to go
A burning desire
Says I, "He's a liar."
The dome of the Kublai Khan, so.
Olivia lived all alone
To shatter a porcelain throne!
The glare from a book
With bad friends you're a crook.
And retired her erogenous zone.
An old harlot had given up hope
With prison he just couldn't cope.
But from death she arose
And to benefit those
"Since the vicar left you for the Pope!"
My eldest is gone with her brood.
He asked me to go out for food.
They found that two
Seems massacre's jus'
But kept from becoming unglued.
Our treatment of the Indian was bad.
So what did St Nick bring this lad?
'Cause to know that he would
He never could
Will you hand me my new heating pad?
There once was a chip from Intel
That thing quickly started to swell.
On day trips I'd go
"On the road with the show."
The neighbors do know us quite well.
