Tell Us Another One Do


Oh, how they howled with laughter
At the Joker’s turn of phrase
Who could make a sentence ticklish
By underusing overplays
Keeping declarations clear to hear
With funny use of common speech
Could surprise and light expectant eyes
By putting mundane out of reach
For that’s the way to tell a joke
By turning tables altogether
Using down to earth for all its worth
In the vane of merry weather
Amusement seeks out laughter lines
Tapping in to smiles preferred
It’s not the joke but how it feels
When giggle punchlines smack absurd
