He runs off of human energy
He uses most normal words
Except paradigm and synergy
 
Some may call him a robot
To me he’s just a guy
But when the robot revolution comes,
I’ll probably be first one to die

She sits there scribbling notes so quiet 
and makes us feel so bad
 
She always sits so quiet
No, she doesn’t like to talk
She eats a simple breakfast
And for lunch, a celery stalk
 
Her last name, she says, is Nyi-Nyi, 
I don’t know that too be true
I’m pretty sure it’s pronounced “Note-Taker”

You think that your poop don’t stink
Dr. Grinols might be smitten
With the rhymes that you’re spittin’
But, in my rhythmic quicksand, you’ll sink

		<description><![CDATA[There was a boy named Swanny, 
A skinny lad was he
He thought himself a poet; 
A better one than me
 
His vocab is horrendous
His lexicon truly sucks
He can’t complete a sentence
Without a “bulls***” or f***
 
I recommend a thesaurus
You might like a dictionary
Instead of flapping you jaws around
Like a mouth with dysentery

My wrist has a cyst, I just might die.</p>

<p>My Mary Poppins bag weighs millions of grams;<br />
I stuff it so full, it could break my hand.</p>
<p>The world of business may not be for me;<br />
I think I&#8217;d rather sing opera and possibly sleep.</p>
