(Inspired by Poetwheel's ventures into musical parodies....this one, of course, to the tune of Puff, The Magic Dragon)

Fluff, the tragic madam
Lived on her knees
And brought delight
Both day and night
To those who paid her fees.

Little Jackie Horny
Loved that rascal Fluff
But he was only ten tears old
And not quite old enough.

A hooker lives forever
But no so little boys.
Baseball gloves
Give way to love
And other manly toys.

With puberty behind him
Our boy could now be brave.
He looked up Fluff
And, sure enough,
He slipped into her cave.

Oh, Fluff the tragic madam
Walks this earth no more.
She does grace
That special place
Reserved for saints and whores.

Little Jackie Horney's
Life has since moved on
But, when he's gruff
He thinks of Fluff
And hums his childhood song.....

Oh, Fluff the tragic madam
Da da dum de da.............

EXCELLENT job Balladeer.

Had the protagonist lived on I would have enquired about her minutely rate.

Hilarious! I think we need to hide the nursery rhymes from you...imagine what Mary will do with those little lambs..and god forbid we find out what Little Miss Muffet really sat on!

Well, Poet deVine, you know what they say about Mary...

Mary had a little sheep
And with that sheep she went to sleep.
The sheep turned out to be a ram
So Mary had a little lamb!

Nice to hear from ya, Fred!
