An engaging young filly named Sally,
Who enjoys the occasional dally,
Will sit on the lap
Of a well-endowed chap,
And declare: “Ooh, you’re right up my alley!”
Said a lecherous fellow named Shea,
When his prick would not rise for a lay:
“You must seize it, and squeeze it,
And tease it, and please it.”
Adding: ” Rome wasn’t built in a day!”
There was a young stud from Missouri
Who screwed with astonishing fury,
Till taken to court
For his vigorous sport,
And condemned by a poorly hung jury.

And the lion comes out like a lamb.”
