It's ridiculous rhyming

It's ridiculous rhyming



Let's take the Schitz out of ophrenia
the hero out of heroin
There's no Craic to be had in Cocaine.
Let's take all these words and put them in the bin.
I'm not sinning, I haven't done anything wrong.
Those aren't the chimes of a clock you're hearing
 but the smoke rings from my bong.
It's ridiculous rhyming
I should stop it
"Oy rhyme, go on hop it."
What's in a poem? Lots of words
What's in a word?
I'm glad you've asked that question.
No I'm not, who am I kidding?
Why ask one, if you don't want an answer!
You're nowt but a rhetorical bum
Let's take the friend out of chum
Let's take the cream off the top
put it at the bottom, and call it scum.
Why would you want to tear down my tent?
Because you are a Conservative, you must be bent.
bent as in crooked or bent as in queer?
We should all drown our sorrows, go and have a beer
But what use is alcohol? 
As useful as junk food and gambling?
Hang on sunshine are you walking or rambling?
Never start any writing if you don't know where it will end.
It's as compulsive as that there rhyming
It'll send you round the bend.
