Why do the Spanish Never Use Toasters?
I've never met a man I didn't like.
Though many have met me
Never had a drink I didn't spike
With gingerbread and brie
I've never seen a grump I couldn't woo
Though woozy grumps abound
Never met an inc. I couldn't sue
And earn a healthy pound
I've never known an honest day's work
I'm rather proud to say.
Never even driven in a merc.
Or in a one-hoss shay
I've never really cared for boiled tripe
Nor flambeed catfish fins
Never did believe the crazy hype
That chefs could cure our sins
I've never taken Spanish lessons
No hablo espaņol
Never chatted with the Hessians
I've heard they're very droll
I've never rhymed a villanelle
Though villains often do
Never have I fibbed a kiss-and-tell
Or pitched perverted woo
I've never made an omelette without eggs
I think I'm pretty smart
Never did trust a mutt that begs
Or a kittykat's black art
