nitty-gritty.

Jack said he wondered why they always appointed monkeys
to teach him the English Language,
but he found it so apt, so quaint.

the Truth stood up and slapped her through the face saying,
"Wake up bitch.
she did not appreciate the gesture.

and the sailor he sang "Hurrah!
Hurrah, hurrah, rey!
and the sailor he sang "Hurrah!
Hurrah, hurrah, hey!
