Clerihews Are More Fun Than Sex

Charles, the Prince of Wales [Beefy ]

Owns a vast array of snails [Padfoot]

When his evenings lack spark [Roland]

They take walks in the park [Padfoot]

His consort, Camilla [Roland]

Loves Aston Villa [Padfoot]

Her natural hue [Beefy ]

Mixes quite a lot of purple in among the Royal Blue [Anon.]

Chuck's brother, Andy [Karin]

Is really quite handy [quasi]

And if he ever gets the lurgy [Roland]

He'll study metallurgy [N]

The Duke of Edinburgh [Padfoot]

Likes to go trotting at the Curragh [Beefy ]

And when he doesn't know what's going on [Ethetran]

He goes and shoots a swan [Beefy ]

The Princess Royal [loaf]

Everyone will spoil [N]

With presents of racehorses [loaf]

And warp drive Porsches [F]

As for Edward and Sophie [Roland]

Both, no doubt, will win a trophy [F]

For doing something mundane [Big Andy]

Like sharing a single working brain [loaf]

HM The Queen [Beefy ]

Was recently seen [Ethetran]

Feeding buttered toast [Roland]

To the Sandringham ghost [Beefy ]

The late Queen Mum [Ethetran]

Liked a tot of rum [Grayman]

If there was no rum in [Padfoot]

She just stuck her thumb in [Grayman]

Young Prince Harry [Ethetran]

At parties likes to tarry [Karin]

And can't see the point [Beefy ]

Of wasting a perfectly rolled joint [Karin]

The Butler serving Di [N]

Seemed like a regular guy [loaf]

But behind that servile mask [N]

He hid a small hip flask [F]

And Wills, the next in line [loaf]

I hear he likes fine wine [F]

And a portly wench [Big Andy]

Electric drills and one good wrench [F]
