                                                        Gigged

                                  So prim and proper was Miss Kreig that some said she was a


                                  stuffy prig.  But then there came a Russian shindig whereat

                                  she drank vodka swig after swig.  And on her knees she danced


                                  a jig,  stuffing her face with dates and a fig.




        As if this weren't enough, she called the Czar a "Fascist pig," struck him with an


        olive twig, then dared to pull off the Czarina's horsehair wig.  For this Miss Kreig

        was given “life” in a Russian brig.

                                           Jack and Jill


                              Jack and Jill went up the hill

                              to fish for brill in a swilling rill.


                              However, they caught nil.



                              And when they came down, they came down

                              with a chill and began to feel ill.  So then
                              their mother served them soup with dill


                              and gave them each a get- well pill.
