Singapore Slang
Sir Thomas Stamford Raffles.
What truly baffles?
He didn't invent the charity raffle
But of Singapore's future oft did babble.

The Big Bang Trouble With Sheep And Goats
There once was a priest from Terra Haute,
Who purchased some sheep and a goat.
Love can be bought, he thought,
Until the moment he got caught.
That quote terribly haughty priest unquote.

Old Fat Furry Catpuss
Bagpuss
Once auditioned for Ballets Russes;
His pirouette from watchers a vision did cajole
Of a rotund and lazily twirling barber's pole.
