(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. PW ------------------ Poetic Wheelbarrow http://www.stormloader.com/poetwheel/den.html |
