To Anthony1Yes, of course, the plumber.
Did you know how he became a plumber, Anthony?
This is one of NESSI's true poems.
Dicky’s money pit
In days gone by
Upon the throne
A snake took a crap
And made a clone
It swam to the top
And bobbed a little
Amidst the brine
The foam and spittle
So the rattler bent over
Reached thru the foam
Grabbed the stinky critter
And took it home
He looked kind of homely
Pale and sick
But he said “you’re my boy”
And named him Dick
As time passed by
Summer after summer
He thot he got smarter
As everyone got dumber
The first cash he made
He made from no other
He went out and sold
His porcelain mother
Yes, that white flush unit
That hung on the wall
That once served mankind
Was gone from us all
But he knew his stuff
This young new comer
So he bot a pipe wrench
And became a plumber
Then out back of a house
He dug a big pit
About six feet deep
Where people could $hit
Then an old fella-
eloquent and fine
Asked what he was doin’..
Dick said “diggin’ a mine
“But what minerals are there
In that little fold?”
Dick said “don’t tell a soul
T’is silver and gold!!”
Bring me your cash
Go sell your store
You’ll buy yourself rich
I won’t tell you more”
When the guy got back
There was a house on the pit
A door in front
With a half moon on it
So the fella asked Dick
What’s this house on the hill
He said “keep it secret,
This is the mill!!”
So he gave Dick his money
From the store he just sold
And was told to come back
In a month for his gold
The cash Dick ‘e hid
Where no one could see
Then promptly joined up
With the NDP
In a month, the old man
Came back for his gold
He had not a cent
Cuz his store had been sold
He was poor as pauper
And dressed like a clown
Big dick met him there
With a sly sultry frown
Then Dick said “old man,
We lost all you see
Cuz of the mining rules
Of the NDP
But don’t feel bad
Don’t feel blue
When you get more cash
A deal's waitin’ for you.”
So remember if you see
A dude diggin’ a pit
You could end up in the hole
If you’re dealin’ with $-it.
