Have you ever wondered why on earth?
 
Have you ever wondered why on earth
Anyone would speak about their Girth
 
Have you ever wondered why on earth
Anyone would speak about their girth
Let's see in haste
 
The size of your waist
Which caused such hilarious mirth
 
There was a lady from Wapping
who hated the thought of shopping
 
There was a lady from Wapping
who hated the thought of shopping
She huffed and she puffed
 
There was a lady from Wapping
Who hated the thought of shopping;
She huffed and she puffed
Until she was well stuffed,
 
There was a lady from Wapping
who hated the thought of shopping
she huffed and she puffed
walked home in the rain and got sopping
 
Sorry members but I am going to break the rules with my own attempt at a Limerick, more personal than funny, In 1958 as a 5 -pound pom we came To a land with a famous name Starting a new life with great expectations Over the years we traveled states full of sensations Now retired I know now we made the right choice In leaving the country of our births
 
There was an old man that lived in a tree
who had no where to go wee wee
so he held onto a branch
while he pulled down his pants
relaxed and enjoyed the scenery

There was this 5 pound pome
Who once may have been a Tommy
Loving the machine gun fun
Shot himself in the bun
 
And ran back home to his mommy!
 
There was a dog named Taffy
 
There was a dog called Taffy
but he wasn't your usual staffy
 
There was a dog called Taffy
but he wasn't your usual staffy
He could carry a tune
By the light of moon...
 
There was a dog called Taffy
But he wasn't your usual staffy;
He could carry a tune
By the light of moon...
Just to let folks know he was happy.
