Just Fooling Around with Words

 

TERMINAL ANGLOPHILIA

(Inspired by the “chance, dance” rhyme scheme in “Get it On,” a song by the rock group T Rex)

 

It was quite a mesalliance

To be wed to Frothy France

For the Prussians they will prance

Upon Paris in a trance

 

We must thwart their advance

And Assume a stoic stance

With a dagger and a lance

We’ll quash their entrance

 

And When we charge we dance

In underwear by elance

The penile glans is in the manse

And we dare to take a chance

 

With a very haughty glance

Like a seer at a séance

We’ll avoid happenstance

And wear the tightest pants
