She cracked a joke—it cracked him up
You should’ve heard his chuckles
She cracked an egg, ate a crackerjack
He calmly cracked his knuckles.
She took a crack at cracking nuts
He took a crack at it too
He pushed too hard and cracked
The brand new nutcracker in two.
They always woke at the crack of dawn
They cracked each other’s toes
She’d buy books and crack their spines
His job was cracking codes.
“I’ve got a lot
of work,” he said
“My boss has cracked the whip.”
He cracked open his suitcase
And went on a business trip.
The business trip went well
And he said, “Boy, I’ve hit the jackpot!”
But when he returned, and cracked open the door
He saw she’d turned into a crackpot.
“You don’t look good,” he said. “What’s wrong?”
“Gadzoodle!”
she answered. “Whack-zack!”
“Oh no,” he said, and he realized the truth:
“You’ve been smoking cigarettes.”
