Nothing Smooth About Me
At least, though, I can write, rap and rhyme!

The way I move is anything but
The jiggling of my butt and gut
My patter, banter, lines are naff
At least I can generate a laugh
*
Nothing smooth about me at all
As smooth as a red brick wall
At least I can rap, rhyme and write
I'm as smooth as the driven at all that...
*
Thanks for reading!
Author's Notes: I am sure I will come up with something else for this challenge, but this silly little ditty came to me. This is for the Smooth Challenge which you can find out more about here:

smooth as not being smooth, very smooth! hahaha
Red brick wall was like honey to my ears. Imagine throwing those bricks at people I don't like. So smooth, right! Lol. Loved your Paulitical poem! 🍩🥐
Haha I keep thinking about “smooth criminal” in this challenge which I don’t think is exactly what they want. Isn’t your title from a song too? But I cannot think which. 👍
I can relate to this in all but the rap. No one wants to hear me attempting that.
Rather smooth...
lol thanks for the laughs :D
Lol. That's great. Good luck.
Superduper flyy Paul! I loved it!
good job you rappin rhyme writer, 😊😊
That title made me LOL and then it just filtered into more of that 😂
fun poem. Most of us jiggle a little
A fun little ditty, and a truth bomb, to boot!
