Ladies and jellyspoons,
I come before you
to stand behind you
and tell you something
I know nothing about.
Next Friday,
the day before Thursday,
there will be a ladies' meeting
for men only.
Wear your best clothes,
if you haven't any,
and if you can come,
please stay home.
Admission is free,
you can pay at the door.
We'll give you a seat,
so you can sit on the floor.
It doesn't matter
where you sit,
the kid in the gallery
is sure to spit."

No one seems to know the name of the person who wrote this one and there are many different versions (like a whispering chain that gets distorted with each telling). The one above is the one I learnt by heart... Does anyone have a different version?
