Told me meat was too plebian
Told me you were through with viand
Now you say you're hungry
Well just to prove it's true
Go on and fry me a liver
Fry me a liver
I fried a liver over you.
It's a work in progress.

What is it about puns that exerts such a pull on some?

The tactical sin, the strategic win.

Last line should really be "I fried a liver all for you".

Matt, that's because it wasn't a pun, it was one of those stupid in-jokes that's so coded it's incomprehensible. Basically I was bemoaning the fact that the smart cute boys all love the atrocious puns. It's such a trial.

I haven't read it, myself, but I hear there may be puns in Tristram Shandy.

Indeed there are. Proving my point.
BTW, a new post wouldn't hurt. I'm just saying.
