Crazier Than You

i guaruntee
said the man
under the english fair
i know the craziest
man around
that can be found anywhere

he's crazier than your
mom or dad
crazier than you sister too
he's crazier than old crazy bill
and crazier than the who

i stepped right up
and said to him
sir how do you do
i'll bet that he
can't out crazy me
and i'll make a wager too

the man said
i knew you would
by the color of sun in your hair
and i'll make the wager
the loser on his head
shall place the winner's underwear

and so we shook
and i took a look
at the craziest man would be
and he stalked right up
wearing naught but a cup
of the finest australian tea

he looked down from his
crazy old eyes
and i don't think he really could see
but he gave me a grin
from under his his chin
and said, you think yer crazier than me

then his face filled with dread
and then filled with red
and he said surely this cannot be
this is the man
who thought me up
i know he is crazier than me

so i took my skiviis
from around my parts
and i placed them on his dome
i said don't go to jail
just send them in the mail
i expect them before i go home

now here i am
writing to you
i know you might think me daffy
but it's rude to ask
in company of friends
does anyone feel a bit drafty

    This is so cute ... what a fresh remix of The Devil Went Down To Georgia ... it was funny ... and it called out to you for laughter ... very well done ... I see absolutely nothing wrong with this piece ... it floats lightly and gives you a bit of a chuckle as you flow through it ... Keep up the good work and keep smiling ...

    Just had to comment one more time. I actually dreamed about this poem that I met the man wearing nothing but a cup of the finest Australian tea. He asked me riddles. ^_^ So once again, excellent job.

    Oh my god, I love this poem! It's so whimsical and imaginative. It made me laugh. It reminded me of something Ogdon Nash would write. Excellent, excellent job.
