for each member of my family****


There once was a lady, Elisa
Who racked charges on her new Visa
Her vision askew
As debts only grew
Like liens on our tower a' Pisa
-----------------------------------

There once was a boy named Matthew
Who almost choked on a cashew
The cashew was small
But that isn’t the all
Better run, its now comin at you!
-----------------------------------

Oh, there once was this girl named Melanie
Or at least that’s what you been tellin’ me
You say she stinks bad
Well I think that I’m glad
Cuz that means you haven’t been smellin’ me
------------------------------------

There once was a boy named Chandler
Whose rhyme was only “man handler”
So we thought he’d be mean
But it remained to be seen
Instead he grew up: Adam Sandler
------------------------------------

There once was a guy name of Walter
Who married his wife at the altar
All mentioned above
He dearly does love
Oh there once was a guy name of Walter

There once was a Texan named Wayoutwalt,
Who was funnier than TV's Charles Kuralt,
A really great guy,
One just can't deny,
He's the poetic best, he wins by default.

there once was an ex-prosecutor

till at home or eating at Hooters

There once was a family wayout
Each one had their say all about
Why their name's not way-in
But not one would begin...
So together they hollered way-shout
