A Clanger is long in the snout
All pink and knitted and stout
They whistle to speak

A Clanger is long in the snout
All pink and knitted and stout
They whistle to speak
And the little ones squeak

A Clanger is long in the snout
All pink and knitted and stout
They whistle to speak
And the little ones squeak
From holes that they pop in and out.

I went for a walk by a river

Jangran99 Tue 05-Dec-17 21:22:34

I went for a walk by a river
To fall in was not very clever

Bathsheba Tue 05-Dec-17 22:23:40

I went for a walk by a river
To fall in was not very clever
I get swept downstream

I went for a walk by a river
To fall in was not very clever
I get swept downstream
(Not everyone’s dream)

I went for a walk by a river
To fall in was not very clever
I get swept downstream
(Not everyone’s dream)
Will I do it again? Not ever!

I thought I would go for a hair cut

I thought I would go for a hair cut
But would you believe it, the shop's shut!

Squiffy Wed 06-Dec-17 00:42:38

I thought I would go for a hair cut
But would you believe it, the shop's shut!
I took out my shears

NannyTee Wed 06-Dec-17 04:25:20

Which cut off my ears

NannyTee Wed 06-Dec-17 04:26:35

I thought I would go for a hair cut
But would you believe it, the shop's shut!
I took out my shears
Which cut off my ears

I thought I would go for a hair cut
But would you believe it, the shop's shut!
I took out my shears
Which cut off my ears
Later the salon girls just said "Tut tut"

Till Christmas we have nineteen days

Till Christmas we have nineteen days
The Christmas tree's now all ablaze

Bellanonna Wed 06-Dec-17 08:58:27

Till Christmas we have nineteen days
The Christmas tree’s now all ablaze
The angel’s on top

Bathsheba Wed 06-Dec-17 10:03:48

Till Christmas we have nineteen days
The Christmas tree’s now all ablaze
The angel’s on top
Christmas music non-stop

NannyTee Wed 06-Dec-17 13:46:46

Till Christmas we have nineteen days
The Christmas tree’s now all ablaze
The angel’s on top
Christmas music non-stop
And DH is wrestling with the beer bottle top

I wish I was a Movie star

NannyTee the last line of a Limerick is supposed to rhyme with the first two lines, not the middle two.

NannyTee Wed 06-Dec-17 15:36:37

Till Christmas we have nineteen days
The Christmas tree’s now all ablaze
The angel’s on top
Christmas music non-stop
And DH in kitchen with beer as he sways.

I wish I was a movie star

I wish I was a movie star
I would be loved both near and far

MissAdventure Wed 06-Dec-17 18:39:32

I wish I was a movie star
I would be loved both near and far
My diction clear, such style, such grace!

NannyTee Wed 06-Dec-17 19:12:20

And smug expressions on my face

NannyTee Wed 06-Dec-17 19:13:10

I wish I was a movie star
I would be loved both near and far
My diction clear, such style, such grace!
And smug expressions on my face

NannyTee Wed 06-Dec-17 19:52:18
