Watch out for drunk Genies.
Oyster !
Bartender said, ‘”heard you found a Genie in an old Asian rug ,”
Yeah, but, he was loaded, witched inside a whiskey jug,
Couldn’t understand a word he said, some kind of foreign species,
I wished I could understand him. Damn! I blew that wish to pieces,
Told my wife, I gotta sober up, you better take my drink,
I’ve gotta stop and clear my head. I really have to think,
Bartender said, “That lady that you came in here with must be a distant inlaw,
She’s gotta be the ugliest of ugly women I ever saw,”
No offence taken, but she’s my wife and I hate to say it,
But this boozer Genie I found was a real alcoholic,
He gave me two wishes, Shoulda really had three,
Ain’t seen him since, so I’m stuck you see,
I wished for riches to fill our bank books,
And It’s really been great except for her looks,
I wished for her a Pearly white face to replace her unwanted red,
Idiot didn’t know about pearls; gave her an oyster face instead !

The Wholly Book of Genesis
by Jay Dubya
The Wholly Book of Genesis is a humorous satire on the first book of the Old Testament where the Story of Creation, the building of Noah's Ark, Sodom and Gomorrah and the families of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob are thoroughly spoofed and broadsided.
