The Crooked

"written with my friend Stuart in mind"

A crooked man fell in love with

a crooked woman.
He made a crooked proposal
which she crookedly accepted.

They had a crooked wedding,

invited all their crooked friends.

Everyone had a crooked good time.
Eventually there was a crooked daughter,
followed by another, and then a crooked son.

The crooked parents sent them all
to very crooked schools where they received
the very best crooked educations.
Crooked degrees, followed by crooked jobs,

crooked spouses and crooked kids.

There's just no end to these Crooked b******s.
