JimLucas Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 LDT gets us to spoutOn topics we thought we'd worn out, But she gives it a spin And sucks us right in And, presto! It's fresh as a sprout! OK, Mutt, this one's for you : Some Alaskans support Sarah Palin, And some of them like to go whalin'. But I know one old geezer, Who's a Lachenal squeezer, And he gets my toe tappin', no failin'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henk van Aalten Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 OK, Mutt, this one's for you :Some Alaskans support Sarah Palin, And some of them like to go whalin'. But I know one old geezer, Who's a Lachenal squeezer, And he gets my toe tappin', no failin'. Well although it's not my native language I give it a try: There once was a squeezer from Denmark He squeezed his cute anglo in the park But she said to him Oh come on dear Jim I'd like you to squeeze me in the dark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

miikae Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 Thank you Mr C W & Mr L L too For where would we be without you Plucking and strumming bits o string Tapping skins with sticks that don’t ring Blowing up bags with wind not nitro Hitting a triangle for an intro Singing a tune with husky voice Or driving around in a Rolls Royce Listening to CDs oh what a bore Plus lots & lots & a lot more Just sit and squeeze your time away For twil soon be Christmas day So pull push pull not in a rush Turkeys on the table sound all a hush Eat till your full don’t fall on the floor Concertinas waiting for you to play more So to burn off the fuel that the dinner gave Then go out in the evening for a wee rave A merry Christmas to you all Eat and enjoy both one and all A Happy new year to you all too Keep squeezing Tina don’t be blue Smile be happy you know it makes sense The worlds your oyster and so immense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DavidFR Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 Here's one: Don't always be quiet and mellow My father at me used to bellow So I took his advice thought "'tinas are nice" Now he thinks I'm a capital fellow! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groeswenphil Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 A lady called Catherina would squeeze her old concertina. She'd care not a fig for a reel or a jig but loved to play Macarena Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drbones Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 Sometimes, when I lie awake at night, I think this might be my fate for playing so badly. A pirate who played concertina Hailed from old Fernandina The constable caught him And proceeded to flog him He should’ve stayed in the cantina. When finally the beating was done Ten men came out with their guns He was tied to a post offered one final toast But said “Give me my squeezebox ye bums!” The constable thought this was odd But still gave an approving nod. When the squeezebox was brought It was tied in a knot And the pirate proceeded to sob. The constable seeing this said “Now you have nothing to dread” They lead him away And the very next day The bastards hung him instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drbones Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 Down by the docks There was a girl with gold locks And she was squeezing an old concertina “What’s that thing?” I queried And, Oh, are you married? She said “Get lost ye stupid hyena” I was quite taken back By this vicious attack I thought I'd be foolish to stay But I stood my ground And with no one around I pushed her butt in the bay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Drinkwater Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 (edited) Some musos decided, for fun, To play Fred Pidgeon's polka No.1. But they talked and drank beer, And came over so queer, They never got past the first run!

JimLucas Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 [to be recited with a Down East accent] There once was a fine concertina, Whose "player" just couldn't be keener. She could play to submission Any so-called "musician", Even those with a temperament meaner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LDT Posted December 12, 2008 Author Share Posted December 12, 2008 There once was a young lady called Sarah, who about music didn't care a. Until a concertina she did try, I've played a tune she said, the end must be nigh! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MandolinRefugee Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 (edited) To avoid squeeze box innuendoA gent did a lady befriend-o He played the 'tina She played ocarina Together they reached their crescendo Best yet I reckon , just needs a tweak How about this one: To avoid squeezebox innuendo They played so their notes well did blend-o Whilst in a duet They started to sweat And together, they reached their crescendo.

Chris Drinkwater Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 There was a young lady from Spain, Who's favourite duet was the Crane. Nothing could be finer, Than her fugue in E minor, Which she greatly enjoyed, playing it time and time again. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- A talented young musician from *Devizes, Played concertinas of all types, shapes and sizes. His renditions of much-loved classical scores, Often brought huge spontaneous applause, And also won him many first prizes. *A small town in the county of Wiltshire, England.
