  1. There was a lad who wondered whether he could
    Compose a limerick, and whether he should.
    So with great aplomb he first sucked his thumb
    And the limerick came out quite good.

  2. There was a recalcitrant refusenik named Otto,
    Who lived deep down in a grotto.
    His friends were all mice,
    Some quite urbane and nice
    At our next subterranean party let’s all get blotto.

  3. When you’re serving the group as their pilot
    There’s never a time to run, or walk, amok to a riot.
    Just keep your calm
    Let it serve you as a balm.
    You need not believe me, but I beseech you, just try it.
