I went to a peanut farm and asked them to tell me how they grew them, in a nutshell.

Joke 678
I like to write poetry and perform it at poetry nights. I've been writing some form of it since school years.
Bowsprit
I wake to the sound of traffic
Buzzing in my ears
Busy bees so hard at work
Goes on and on for years
Where do they get to while I rest?
A few more miles up the mountain
Pushing the boulder as Sisyphus
To reach the eternal fountain
Well I'm down here in my hovel
But I don't bow and I won't grovel
It seems like spit is rain off my shovel
I'm staying home today
I like to write poetry and perform it at poetry nights. I've been writing some form of it since school years.
I only like librarians
I want a woman who will tell me my book is overdue
And the loan I took out needs returning
I need a woman is it you?
But so long as I'm learning, she'll keep my pages turning
She can't be book burning it's true
You can beat me with your shoes
You can beat me black and blue
But I only like Librarians
Oh there are all kinds of women in the world
There are secretaries, C-sections, and sectarians
But there is only one who'll do
Yes, I'm talking about you
Oh I only like librarians
It must be the way they files their books
Oh in alphabetical persuasions
Colour coded or by title it gives me titillations
Yes I only like librarians
Oh there are women builders, gardeners and enterprising
dancers,
Engineers, teachers and farmers too
But beat me black and blue
Cos none of them will do
Oh I only like librarians
Oh there are many kinds of races in the world
There hispanic, European, Black or Asian
But I don't mind the skin tone or colour
It's the way order books shelves that matters
Oh I only like librarians
I like to write poetry and perform it at poetry nights. I've been writing some form of it since school years.
Throw away love
I threw away
Yes I threw it all away
I threw away the love I had
Why I should've taken the good with the bad
But I squandered my chances
On fleeting romances
And I threw away the love had
So don't follow in my footsteps my lad
For you may never love another, it is sad
To say that you have life only when you have a wife
That's the truth, It's no colouring of the truth
I have lived the life and am the proof
I threw away, yes I threw it all away
I threw away the love I had
I like to write poetry and perform it at poetry nights. I've been writing some form of it since school years.
There aren't any more fish in the sea
There are no more fish in the sea
Whoopey
Yes they've completely run out
And who do we have to thank?
Oh overfishing the doggerel Art bank
Yes there's no fish in Auchan
Aucan, not any at all
They've all swum up the rivers and stayed
There beyond the waterfall
When they say you can find a fish easy these days
What the hell do they know?
They are basing it on movie reel parades
From when they were in Fish Schools
Back in the 1960s
I like to write poetry and perform it at poetry nights. I've been writing some form of it since school years.

It's all good
It's all good
You've got wood in the hood
Wood in the hood, wood in the hood
It's all good in the neighbourhood
It's bad, you got twigs in the bag
Twigs in the bag, twigs in the bag
Well it's all bad, you got twigs in the bag
Twigs in the bag is all bad
Don't fret, you;ve got strings in your net
Strings in your net,
Still a chance you can catch a fish yet
Catch a fish, yet, Don't Fret
Come back home, I'm waiting for Rome
Waiting for Rome, Waiting for Rome
I like to write poetry and perform it at poetry nights. I've been writing some form of it since school years.
Shepton Shearers
The sheep shearing season is short in Shepton
So short in Shepton it's stepping on septums
And September is too late for conception
In Shepton the sheep saw a ram
A ramming went Rambo through Rotterdam and
Ramsbottom, a Rutting a tutting a Solitary Sam
Who settled in setts where badgers made bets
On mother hubbard's long laboured lamb
Oh but not to be ham, the pigs they globe trotted
And Forgotten the begotten Ramsbottom Ram
They cried out oh Dad, Delivers us Do
From Do da days dallying daily with dew
I like to write poetry and perform it at poetry nights. I've been writing some form of it since school years.
