Operator, Operator

Limerick

Becky was a telephone switchboard operator

Once she was asked to connect to Mrs Alligator

She quickly disconnected the line

She was tired of the old punchline

Which got her in trouble with the administrator

Come near, sit a spell, and listen to tales of old as I sit and rock by my fire. I'll serve you some cocoa and cookies as I tell you of the time long gone by when your Greats-greats once lived.

Hah! Poor Becky, just trying to dodge another reptilian joke, but the admin wasn’t having it.

Better than "Master Bates". (Yep, favorite character on Downton Abbey, though most called him "Mister".)
