There was a girl from Southend-on-Sea
Whose proud father christened her “Ponzi”.
But the name he enjoyed
Only got her annoyed—
She wished she were a boy, like Beyoncé.
Original comic here.
You have to put the stress in "Southend-on-Sea" on the syllable "on". Can you do that for me?
Plus: I seem to be flooding the site with limericks at the moment, but no matter. Here is some more, celebrity-based, BONUS CONTENT:
There was a chanteuse named Beyoncé
Who became a top rapper's fiancee.
So streetwise Shawn Carter
Is now the proud father
Of baby Blue Ivy. Bit poncey?
A friendly young child named Sean

I am hardly to blame
For my moronic name
But I'm stuck with it till I'm eighteen."
