​I Keep My Big Fat Mouth Shut 

​I keep my big fat mouth shut
I don't say a word 
I am able to think my thoughts 
And just not be heard

I Know Someday I'll Die

​I know some day I'll die
You must know thats so 
I simply do not know
When I'll get away.

​
I Like Chocolate 

I like chocolate
Hot or cold 
I liked chocolate when young 
And I like chocolate when now old. 

I'm Glad I'm Not A Sardine 

I'm glad I'm not a sardine 
I think that's be too mean 
spend my days in water 
And then be eaten on  a cracker 

I Love To See My Wife On A Beach 

​I love to see my wife on a beech 
I love to be close and hear her screech 
When the water gets splashed 
In her hair and on her face
