Roses are bacon...

    Having a brain freeze. I read a really funny Roses are Red poem recently, and I think it was on boards.ie.

    It was something along the lines of:

    Roses are red
    Violets are violet.

    Then something about oranges being orange or something.

    Somebody just sent me a Roses are Red message that I can totally trump with this one if I could just figure out what it is...

    I'll write a poem (tomorrow) on the topic of your choice for whoever gives me the right answer.

    (I realise the somewhat irony of offering a poem as a reward for somebody who gives me the lyrics to a poem btw...)

    The poem you saw will be here.

    Nope. It mustn't have been on boards so.

    I did find the start of it though:

    Roses are red
    That part is true
    But violets are violet
    Not fucking blue

    But I can't find the rest of it. The internet is failing me!!

    Yep - but the last version I read had more lines. And they were brilliant! (If you're very easily impressed - which I am! :p)

    Nice try. But you are not getting a finger tip pet.

    Roses are red, violets are blue.
    That's what they say but it just isn't true.
    Roses are red, apples are too.
    But violets are violet! Violets aren't blue.
    An orange is orange,
    But Greenland's not green,
    A pinky's not pink,
    So what does it mean?
    To say something's blue when it's not, you defile it.
    But hey, what the hell -
    It's hard to rhyme with 'violet.'

    My cousin got a valentine card from a girl he didn't like at school. This was his lovely response.
    Roses are red
    Violets are blue
    Timber is thick
    And so are you.

    Yes!! That's the one. :) Hmmmm - I was well off with my last guess.

    Ok - just tell me what you want your poem to be about, and I will write it.

    That poem was included in the search results that Maccavity linked to earlier. Apparently it's from Animaniacs going by that post.
    You could search for the Animaniacs clip of it and send the video to your friend.:)

    Why has a McDonalds hamburger got no ham in it?

    Roses are sweets
    They're kind of outdated
    But fill 'em with meat
    And they will be ate'd.

    Aaaaaaaand, now I'm hungry.

    Its a lazy way to write poetry
    When the only lines you write are the final two.
