449. Quiet, please!

A Wagnerian opera buff, Cameron,
Had a very bad habit of yammerin'
When arias were being sung
In Ring of the Nibelung.
It caused folks to say "Götterdämmerun'!"

  1. wonderful!! I was wondering if the last line could have come out: Gottdammerin, quit yammerin, Cameron. I bet you could figure out how to make it work. That reminds me of a limerick about Rudolf Serkin the now deceased pianist.

    There once was a pianist named Serkin,
    Who was always jerkin' his Gherkin,
    His wife said, :"Serkin,
    Quit jerkin your Gherkin,
    You're sherkin your ferkin, Serkin."
