If we had to go live in Spain
We'd bear arms and the Cross of Lorraine
And at noon every day
We'd take a short break to pray
And a much longer break to complain.

The music is playing so loud

On a fig tree, presumably
The music is playing so loud
It has moved the unmovable crowd
The cymbals and drums
Inspire my thumbs

(Make that 'the 3rd and 4th lines have 5 or 6 beats'. Now are you thoroughly confused?!)

(First line adjusted to fit the limerick form)

The oak trees are all dressed in gold
The back-to-school clothing's been sold

Completely sideways, man
The oak trees are all dressed in gold
The back-to-school clothing's been sold
The turkey is worried
In fact, he has scurried

But he's now sixteen pieces, all told

A hitman with low self-esteem
and a penchant for cookies and cream
Just couldn't refuse

A hitman with low self-esteem
and a penchant for cookies and cream
Just couldn't refuse
a quick hit of booze
And soaked his dessert in Jim Beam


My, what an extra large cat

It's furry, it's tall and it's fat

It's furry, it's tall and it's fat
It eats on the run

It's furry, it's tall and it's fat
It eats on the run
And depends on no one

It barks with delayed ultrasound
Which confuses intruders

It barks with delayed ultrasound
Which confuses intruders
And locks up computers
And scares bats for ten miles around.

I wonder what this button does?
