I didn't get home until dark.&lt;br&gt;
But when I got back I had ants in my pants&lt;br&gt;
And my father was feeding the shark.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
I went to play in the park.&lt;br&gt;
And I didn't come home until dark.&lt;br&gt;
And when I got back I had ants in my pants&lt;br&gt;
Dirt in my shirt, glue in my shoe,&lt;br&gt;
And my father was tickling the shark.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
I went to sleep in the park.&lt;br&gt;
The shark was starting to bark.&lt;br&gt;
And when I woke up I had ants in my pants,&lt;br&gt;
Dirt in my shirt, glue in my shoe,&lt;br&gt;
And beans in my jeans and a bee on my knee,&lt;br&gt;
And the shark was tickling my father.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
My father went off to the park.&lt;br&gt;
I stayed home and read to the shark.&lt;br&gt;
And when he got back he had ants in his pants,&lt;br&gt;
Dirt in his shirt, glue in his shoe,&lt;br&gt;
Beans in his jeans, a bee on his knee,&lt;br&gt;
Beer in his ear and a bear in his hair,&lt;br&gt;
So we put him outside in the ark.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
I started the ark in the dark.&lt;br&gt;
My father was parking the shark.&lt;br&gt;
And when we got home we had ants in our pants,&lt;br&gt;
Dirt in our shirt, glue in our shoe,&lt;br&gt;
Beans in our jeans, a bee on our knee,&lt;br&gt;
Beer in our ear and a bear in our hair,&lt;br&gt;
A stinger on each finger, a stain in our brain,&lt;br&gt;
And our belly-buttons shone in the dark.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
So my dad he got snarky and barked at the shark.&lt;br&gt;
Who was parking the ark on the mark in the dark.&lt;br&gt;
And when they got back they had ants in their pants,&lt;br&gt;
Dirt in their shirt, glue in their shoe,&lt;br&gt;
Beans in their jeans, a bee on their knee,&lt;br&gt;
Beer in their ear and a bear in their hair,&lt;br&gt;
A stinger in each finger, a stain in their brain,&lt;br&gt;
A small polka-dot burp, with headache tablets,&lt;br&gt;
And a ship on the lip and a horse, of course,&lt;br&gt;
So we all took a bath in the same tub and went to bed early.&lt;br&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6803265-4145172010855550538?l=wadems.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://wadems.blogspot.com/feeds/4145172010855550538/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6803265&amp;postID=4145172010855550538' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6803265/posts/default/4145172010855550538'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6803265/posts/default/4145172010855550538'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://wadems.blogspot.com/2008/07/on-tuesdays-i-polish-my-uncle-by-dennis.html' title='On Tuesdays I Polish My Uncle by Dennis Lee'/><author><name>Wadems</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11503480818651094564</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='26' height='32' src='http://bp0.blogger.com/_25i6QwGcrsw/R5MAfrXtXLI/AAAAAAAAAAM/BPeNKgklSw4/S220/wadems.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6803265.post-7083981633325745091</id><published>2008-01-23T22:40:00.000-06:00</published><updated>2008-01-23T22:48:55.883-06:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Ariel Atom'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Top Gear'/><title type='text'>Ariel Atom</title><content type='html'>I want one of these bad boys!

Although I beg to differ with &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Top_Gear_(current_format)" target="new"&gt;Top Gear&lt;/a&gt; host &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeremy_Clarkson" target="new"&gt;Jeremy Clarkson&lt;/a&gt;.  As cool as the &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ariel_Atom" target="new"&gt;Ariel Atom&lt;/a&gt; is, nothing beats leaning a bike over on the gas with your knee dragging along the asphalt.  I would also have liked to see a Suzuki GSX-R1000 or Yamaha YZF-R1 take on the Atom at the racetrack rather than a Honda CBR600RR.  Liter bikes smoke 600s on the track.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6803265-7083981633325745091?l=wadems.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://wadems.blogspot.com/feeds/7083981633325745091/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6803265&amp;postID=7083981633325745091' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6803265/posts/default/7083981633325745091'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6803265/posts/default/7083981633325745091'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://wadems.blogspot.com/2008/01/ariel-atom.html' title='Ariel Atom'/><author><name>Wadems</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11503480818651094564</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='26' height='32' src='http://bp0.blogger.com/_25i6QwGcrsw/R5MAfrXtXLI/AAAAAAAAAAM/BPeNKgklSw4/S220/wadems.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6803265.post-2542551008128904241</id><published>2008-01-23T22:17:00.000-06:00</published><updated>2008-01-23T22:29:01.502-06:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Cats'/><title type='text'>I Need Something on My Blog</title><content type='html'>How about Kittie?
