The Past, the Present and Future Walked into a bar. It was tense! I got fired as a surgeon with bad punctuation for leaving out a colon. [chorus] This is a haiku, for people in the UK, A-lu-min-e-um This is a haiku, for people in the US, It's uh-LOO-mi-num My best friend's reading a book on anti-gravity and he can't put the book down! [verse 2] My English teacher asked “Name two pronouns.” I said, “Who, me? Why did the subject break up with the predicate? The didn't agree! I did a theatrical performance about puns it was really just a play on words. I stayed up all night to see where the sun went. Then it dawned on me.

Irregular? You must be a verb! I'd rather be a Schwa It's never stressed! [verse 4] Never leave alphabet soup on the stove when you go out it could spell disaster. An oxymoron walked into a bar. The silence was deafening. What do you get when you cross a rhetorical question and a joke?
