There once was a son of Accrington
Known as the Jon of Anderson
His lyrics were laced with metaphysical
Phrases non sequitur and nonsensical
That flew like the swan of Avalon
Now Yes enter that middle refrain
With a hope that you will explain
Or give a reason, so tell us of your poison As some said Jon, you are putting us on
What the hell is a total mass retain?

Well, well - look what my wife did behind my back! I suppose I have to make some limericks myself:
Quoth Steve Hillage: "It is as I feared.
I looked better when I had a beard.
But Miquette the depraved
wanted me to be shaved,
and now I look perfectly weird".
Said a list'ner. "I cannot enjoy
Magma's music, because they destroy
any reason or sense
with their experiments
and their lyrics which go 'hoi-hoi-hoi'"

 BaldJean and I; I am the one in blue.

Here's a couple that haven't been limericked yet...
I heard Freddie Mercury say "I love both music and ballet" While he sang like a guy With a wink of his eye The entire world knew he was gay!
The Moody Blues lived by the tron When it broke down the magic was gone So they hired Moraz But the Switzerland spazz Walked out in a huff later on! |

The saxes of poor Bloomdidoo
were stolen, so what should he do?
Two more hours to go
till the start of the show!
So he finally played on his shoe!

Remarked Can's Holger Czukay: "Oh bounce it!
I do finally have to announce it:
Though well-known is my name
it does not give me fame
because no-one knows how to pronounce it"!

I'm amazed it took so long for an x-rated limerick to arrive

"Skinkemølle" in Norwegian, so it’s nearly the same.

Tricky? Only if it isn’t Hammill.

Quoth weird Daevid Allen of Gong:
"Now listen do this little song.
It does not exist,
but man, that's the gist,
for neither do we all along."

Many nice ones here lately. Back to the good old days when you only had to enter a house to get stoned: Robin and Mike came from Scotland, the mist-ridden proven-I’m-not land They had hairbands and rings and incredible strings and their home was an evergreen potland

The lingering notes of thee wuthering notes
by eleve earls of marl sailing boats
climbing trees of sqounq feets
where silenet gees meet
for the four lonesome gents playing notes
