KILLERS
A killer rampaging a town,
Ran into a carnival clown.
The clown drew a knife
And took that man’s life,
Then started a spree of his own!

THE WITCH AND THE BURGLAR
A witch riding home on her broom
Spied a burglar trashing her room.
“I’ll get you for this!” she said with a hiss.
His head was soon found in Khartoum.

AN UPPITY CAT
A cat who liked veggies and cheese,
Refused to eat mouse canapes.
“I just can’t abide that tough, hairy hide.
I’d rather eat onions and peas!”

LIZZIE BORDEN
When Lizzie got awfully mad,
She hacked up her stepmom and dad.
The ax at her feet, she giggled and bleat,
“Why am I so terribly bad!”

A sorcerer born in Beijing,
Found a magical jade dragon ring.
It breathed out green smoke,
Transforming that bloke
To a blood-thirsty cannibal king!

She hacked up her stepmom and Dad.
Amazed by the mess, she had to confess:
“What a rip-roaring party we had!”

Except for one shoe and stocking!

A man lost in Galloway Bay,
Cried out in a very loud bray,
“I’m lost in the sea, someone please rescue me!
I’ve been swimming for more than a day!”

The Old Man from Brazil II
There was an old man from Brazil,
Who ate ‘til he made himself ill.
He gave up the ghost, said good-bye to his host,
And flew home to his house on the hill.

A Nasty Old Gnome
A nasty old gnome name o’ Bill
Liked to puncture old teeth with a drill.
He gathered some bones from the graveyard he owns,
But that skeleton wouldn’t sit still!

Cried out in a very loud bray,
