The-Sexless-Innkeeper-2

The Sexless Innkeeper was a poem composed by Barney and then revised by Ted in The Sexless Innkeeper.

Barney's version[]

Twas the night before New Year's
And the weather grew mean
Twas three in the morning
And I was stranded in Queens!

The tavern grew empty
The gas lights grew dim
The horse-drawn carriages
Were all but snowed in

Last call was approaching
And my fortunes looked bleak
Then I turned to my left
And stifled a shriek!

She had a peach-fuzz beard
And weighed sixteen stone
She gobbled up hot wings
And swallowed the bones

I muffled a scream
And threw up in my mouth
I asked, "Where do you live?"
And she said, "One block south."

I swallowed my pride
And six shots of Whiskey
And prayed to the gods
That she wasn't too frisky

Back in her cave
She prepared us a snack
Neath her mighty hooves
The floorboards did crack

But when she returned
She found a sound sleeper
And thus she became
The sexless innkeeper

Ted's version[]

Twas the night before this one
I had hours to kill
I sat in the tavern
Grading parchments with quill

A busty young lassie
Flashed me a grin
Her garb said classy
But her eyes whispered sin

She said, "You're a teacher?"
I said, "Yes, indeed"
"I must have you!" she moaned
"I'm turned on by tweed!"

With haste we did scamper
To my chamber anon
We fell to the couch
And bro, it was on

I unlaced her bodice
Our passions grew deeper
And thus ends the tale
Of the sexless innkeeper
