English Is Weird

There is no egg in the eggplant
No ham in the hamburger
Hot dog has nothing to do with dog
And neither pine nor apple in the pineapple.

English muffins were not invented in England
French fries were not invented in France.

Quicksand takes you down slowly
Boxing rings are square

If the plural of tooth is teeth
Shouldn't the plural of phone booth be phone beeth
If a vegetarian eats vegetables
What does a humanitarian eat!?

Park on driveways and
Drive on parkways
You fill IN a form
By filling it OUT

When the stars are out they are visible
But when the lights are out they are invisible
