There once was a man named Barry
His friends were Nancy and Harry

.

That's it. I'm stuck - someone on FR should be able to come up with something witty yet generally conform to the limerick style.

There once was a man named Barry

He said it's just great
But Wall Street did shake.
And now we're all owned by the state.

There once was a man named Barry
His friends were Nancy and Harry
A handbasket they held
A great nation they felled
This made them quite merry

There once was a man named Barry
His friends were Nancy and Harry
He spent like a drunk
Soon the economy sunk
And his wife few would want to marry.

They sold our our country
So I’ll put this quite bluntly
Make them all commit kari kari

but turned out socialist and scarry.

A pilgrim, named `Barry the Fairy’
Pitched a tent, with pals Nancy and Harry.
..A bear, they did see
..All three—up a tree!
Help should be there by next January.

They made the U.S. pretty scary.

The final line of the limerick should end:

“... from a guy named Larry”

And they quarreled all night
Over who had the right
To do what, and with which, and to whom.

(Yeah, I know, that goes to a different limerick, but it seemed to fit in here)

There once was a Zero
Who fiddled like Nero
And had not a clue how to lead
The economy bled
And liberty fled
An arse whuppin’s what the boy need.

There once was a man named Barry,
His friends were Nancy and Harry.
Their jobs: making and enforcing laws;
this they did without regard to flaws,
the Constitution stuck in their craws.
So by day the vultures would play rage,
at the situations their law did cage,
and night they were merry,
this Nancy, Barry & Harry...
Until one day they were surprised to find,
that millions of guns were pointed at their head;
They’d been to arrogant to see and that made them blind,
the the sounds of the new revolution, it’s said.

Who was glad he could finally marry.

But Barry would rather have Larry.
