Humoresque 2 More verses to Humoresque by Dick Parks Many dentists recommend That using fluoride puts an end To cavities forever- North is up. Stewardesses, take your places Put a smile upon your faces The Captain's out of gas- Knit one, purl two. No admittance to the service Shop - it makes our lawyer nervice; You can use our lounge- Next window, please. Taxpayers who use the Table May round off where they are able; Itemize deductions- You are HERE. Only during business hours You'll be shot if you pick flowers. Please don't touch the statues- I like Ike. Lots of baggage looks the same; Make sure yours has your name. No one wants your laundry- This end up. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- It's important when writing verses to Humoresque to follow the original ("Passengers . ." (which, by the way, is correctly attributed to Mr. Justice Douglas)) to preserve the use of a non-sequitur in the last line. RP
