I once knew a man from Nantucket, and let me tell you, the stories about him were greatly exaggerated.

Back when I was a kid, I heard people made rhymes about the man from Nantucket but I didn’t understand the limerick format. So my brilliant brain thought up this:
There once was a man from Nantucket
The poor man, he lived in a bucket
And the bucket was so small, you see
That it left him no room to pee
Things I need to remember I will likely forget. But this has stayed in my brain for decades.

Gary Puckett and the Union Gap?
Ah-Huh!
That missed his daughter and painted his nails in memory of her locket.

Ahhh, an unfinished limerick. Andrew Dice Clay comes to mind. Only slightly bucket-less. OH!

See, every day! For 50 years I thought it was Pawtucket!
Probably because I have relatives in Nantucket, now that I think about it…
ONCE? I’m sure that there’s been a lot more men from Nantucket than just ONE! There’s more than 5,000 men in Nantucket, RIGHT NOW!
