I WAS HAPPILY SAT CONTEMPLATING

 

I was happily sat contemplating,

When a crab scuttled into view

So, I determined the time had come

To buy some more special shampoo

GOD CREATED THE PILOT WHALE

 

God created the Pilot Whale,

Contrary to heretical theories,

And it was so well received

God went on to make a series

I HAD TO KNOW WHAT SHE THOUGHT

 

I had to know what she thought

So, I texted her to check

“How was the sex” I asked

Hoping it wasn’t egotistic

And she would reply soon

And she texted “quite quick”

CHEWBACCA THE WOOKIEE

 

Chewbacca the Wookiee

Was the victim of an attack

Someone has given him

An all over body wax
