A SNATCH
If clap were what the babe is
And pox were like the cot.
Our things would rub together ;
Wed roger hell for leather
Despite of gleet and tabes,
Grey penis or green twat ;
If clap were what the babe is
And pox were like the cot.
If I were what the turds are
And love were like the arse.
With double sound and single
Delight our farts would mingle,
With music filled as birds are
That walk about the grass ;
If I were what the turds arc
And love were like the arse !
If you were crabs, my darling,
And I your love a taenia ;
Wed scratch and strain together
My rubber and your leather
Until we both were crazy
(My stage and your proscenia)
If you were crabs, my darling.
And I your love a taenia.
If you were thrall to chancre
And I were page to piles.
Wed play for boric acid
Until we grew more placid.
