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.

We fished off the pier at Gulf Shores
As James Dean waltzed in through the doors.
"We're distressingly bored"
Him, "Return to the Lord."
And besides, we're behind in our chores.
Said Elaine in her will, "I bequeath"
"I'm afraid I've grown hair 'tween my teeth."
Like Little Bo Peep
We follow like sheep.
The explosions going on underneath.
Some men with some girls had some drinks
I wonder if anyone thinks
It's easy to read
My CPA said
And she never could catch forty winks.
When a CEO creates a fall
Attended a grand southern ball.
Does LIM SIG hope
Who's lost touch and can't cope
Fits as neat as a brick in a wall.
A well-known young rower called Trigger
Was so big that there wern't any bigger.
It will come in handy
To think you're still randy.
To sheilas who ride him with vigor.
Now you call it "football" but we
In the year of two-thousand and three.
Considered my duty
The technique's beauty
While you take a look, I'll goose thee!
There was a young fellow named Joe
Paid fifty bucks for a fat ho'.
Says the lady -- "I bet!"
His feet were still wet.
And play them; now how does that song go?
There have always been chiefs who subscribe
Cautioned Darwin, "They'll claim you imbibe."
Was always for healing
His head hit the ceiling.
Are skilled at the art of the bribe.
"A Vision Miraculous! Look!!"
Will bring me my slippers and book.
When you hear some hooey
The idea is screwy!
Now look how them suckers been took!
I hate to see Jackson put down.
Make Tony come back with a frown.
But the man is as bad
Was herself, lightly clad
Keep laughing! I mean as a clown!

New limericks are generated every five minutes. You can get six a day by following @DadaLimericks on Twitter. Or, take it highbrow.

Rhymes are calculated using the CMU Pronouncing Dictionary. There are 1155 distinct sounds for the "A" rhyme and 1035 for the "B" rhyme.

Inspired by Dr. Andy Holding on The Science of Fiction.
