72 Miles From The Sea

Are you wearing a ten-gallon hat?

Well, no there’s nothing wrong with that

And after all it does have to be said

You do have a ten-gallon head

Are you wearing a Halloween waistcoat?

Oh, I like the way the buttons glow

And the whole thing luminesces

It really is very Edgar Allan Poe

Have you ever wondered why?

A chicken coop has two doors?

Because it would obviously be

A chicken Sedan if it had four

I’m sorry I can't be your valentine

I’m dumping you double quick

It’s on medical grounds in truth

Because you just make me sick

No! You don't iron four leaf clovers

That something you must never do

Because let’s be honest you don’t

Want to go pressing your luck do you

My wife has put me on a very strict diet

And eating before bed has been discouraged

But if we weren’t meant to have midnight snacks

Then why is there a light on in the fridge

If you were to train Quasimodo

For an American footballer game

The result of training would be

The Halfback of Notre Dame
