To write with a broken pencil is… pointless
When fish are in schools, they sometimes… take debate
A thief who stole a calendar… got 12 months
The professor discovered his theory of earthquakes… was on shaky ground
The batteries were given out… free of charge
A dentist and a manicurist married… they fought tooth and nail
A will is… a dead giveaway
If you don’t pay your exorcist… you can get repossessed
With her marriage, she got a new name… and a dress
Show me a piano falling down a mineshaft… and I’ll show you a flat miner

There’s a whisper down the line at 11.39
When the Night Mail’s ready to depart,
Saying ‘Skimble where is Skimble has he gone to hunt the thimble?
We must find him or the train can’t start.’
All the guards and all the porters and the stationmaster’s daughters
They are searching high and low,
Saying ‘Skimble where is Skimble for unless he’s very nimble
Then the Night Mail just can’t go.’
At 11.42 then the signal’s nearly due
And the passengers are frantic to a man —
Then Skimble will appear and he’ll saunter to the rear:
He’s been busy in the luggage van!
He gives one flash of his glass-green eyes
And the signal goes ‘All Clear!’
And we’re off at last for the northern part
Of the Northern Hemisphere!
