Most excellent underused words

Well! If you're quoting the Owl and the Pussycat (without permission from @wiseowl ) I'll add the updated version:-


The Return of Owl and the Pussycat
(with apologies to Edward Lear)

The owl and the pussycat sailed back home
In their beautiful pea-green boat.
They’d eaten the honey and lost all the money
Wrapped up in the five pound note.
The owl looked off to the distant east
And sang to the soft guitar,
“Oh horrible pussy, oh pussy you beast,
What a hard wicked pussy you are, you are, you are,
What a hard wicked pussy you are.”

Pussy said to the owl “You silly old fowl
How awfully bad you sing.
We’re no longer married. That burden I’ve carried
Has gone, and I’ve sold up the ring.”
So they sailed back fast to their distant past
From the land where the bong tree grows
And tried to forget the snakes and the wet
And the pig with the ring on his nose, his nose, his nose,
And the pig with the ring on his nose.

The pig who was willing to sell for one shilling
His ring, stole their money and ran.
They saw him rush off with the turkey, and scoff,
As the two raced away in a van.
Pussy gobbled the mince and chewed up the quince
And cast off the runcible spoon.
Now she eyed up the owl, that gullible fowl,
As they sailed by the light of the moon, the moon, the moon
As they sailed by the light of the moon.
