#2 On pilgrimage to see St. Ali
And pray and maybe join a rally,
I met a man with such a harem
To think of counting them would scare him;
Now, all his wives wore seven veils
(I'm almost sure that none were males);
And each wife herded seven goats
With perfumed oil on curried coats;
Astride each goat, a proud macaque,
And on each monkey's belt, a sack,
From which, as Termagant enjoins,
From time to time they pulled out coins
To toss the poor by way of alms...
Till Sunni dogs replied with bombs!
Can any count the final tally?
How many went to see St. Ali?

#3 Ona my way to St. Ives I met a man with seven wives,
Although you may think Ima looney,
I know this sounds absurd and looney.
I swear that man was Mickey Rooney.

From Memory Ex MAD circa '68
