h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

IN search of an eligible young man,

she looked under the stairs

And over their lairs,

Even under the frying pan

On the day we moved house

afternoon all

I lost my pet wood-louse

the wee "grannie slater"

(Scots term for wood-louse...)

Turned up four hours later

reading a copy of "Faus'"



The Boogy Man's coming for tea

But I won't let him really scare me,

And he's bringing his date Pearl-Nancy

He's bringing his mate

Shes a real hot date

with a voice that could curdle chablis.

----------------------------

I think I will visit Loch Ness

then the place where they caught Rudolph Hess

And if there's still time...

I'll sing me a rhyme

Which might even scan - more or less!

----

Rhyming's the job of a poet

mornin', anybody at home?

and they sometimes even show it

their knowledge of scansion

could use some expansion
