Answer 3

all I got is 2 lymrics:

There once was a man named Dave,

Whot found a dead ho in a cave.

She was ugly as S=H=I=T,

and was missing a T=I=T, but think of the money he'd save.

There once was a man named McCain,

who got tired of his wrinkly old dame.

So he became a hobbiest,

of boning his lobbiest,

so much for his 08 campeign.

Answer 4

From childhood's hour I have not been

As others were -- I have not seen

As others saw -- I could not bring

My passions from a common spring -

E.A Poe, "Alone"

Answer 5

This is my favorite and not everyone picks it:

LOVELIEST OF TREES

By A.E. Housman

Loveliest of trees, the cherry now

Is hung with bloom along the bough,

And stands about the woodland ride,

Wearing white for Eastertide.

Now, of my threescore years and ten,

Twenty will not come again,

And take from seventy springs a score,

It only leaves me fifty more.

And since to look at things in bloom

Fifty springs are little room,

About the woodlands I will go

To see the cherry hung with snow.
