What goes up the hill and down the hill and never goes up the hill at all?
A road
Under the fire and over the fire and never touches the fire?
A cake in a oven.
What goes up white and comes down red?
An egg
Long legs short thighs little head and no eggs?
A tongs.
Why is a madman like two ordinary men?
Because he is a man beside himself.
Why is a gaoler like a musician?
Because he fingers the keys.
Why is a nail fast in the wall like an old feeble man?
