      There one was a man from Wallingford
      Who himself, was a bit of a wild card…
      He built a clock full of gears
      Then chugged a few of beers
      And shouted “I’m Dick, and I’m hard!”

        There once was a man from Wallingford
        One day he found himself a bit bored
        So he built a clock
        On the base of his cock
        And now they call him Dick Gear-lord

      The Abbot of Wallingford’s flock,
      Built a Mechanical Clock,
      His ultimate goal,
      Was the “winding up” hole,
      Which he operated using his small key

      There once was an Abbot called Rick,
      Who had a mechanical trick,
      A timekeeping gear,
      Was affixed to his rear,
      And the chimes were attached to his nose

      Hmm, unless anyone can think of anything that rhymes with “clock” or “Rick”, I can’t really think of a way to make these sound rude.

      A monk well ahead of his time
      Planned a clock that could measure the sky
      But Cromwell, the shit,
      Tore the whole thing to bits
      I can’t think of a finishing rhyme
