There once was a shepherd in Wales

[u/Jayngyun]

Who’s sheep he shaved under their tails
No sins were committed
But often repeated
For the smell of shit hurts his wool sales

Ah yes, the classic Welsh sheep shaving ballad, truly the pinnacle of modern poetry. My uncle used to tell this exact joke after three pints and always forgot the last line, so he’d just trail off mumbling about market prices. The smell detail really ties the whole narrative together though, proper art

There once was a sailor from Wales Who was expert at pissing in gales. He could fill up a jar From the topgallant spar Without even wetting the sails!
