A singer whose feelings were deep,
His promise of true love to keep.
With a hopeful "Oh, do!"
"Please just love me!" said you,
For affection his heart would then leap.

“The Safety Dance” by Men Without Hats: Cleverly Reimagined as a 5-Line Limerick – A New Perspective!
More than just a quirky 80s hit, Men Without Hats’ “The Safety Dance” emerged as a vibrant protest against the rules of the dance floor—a call for freedom of expression when bouncers tried to stop new wave pogoing. We’ve captured this defiant spirit in a concise, 5-line limerick, offering a new perspective on grooving exactly how you please.
The Safety Dance Limerick
A dancer declared with great glee,
"My friends who won't dance aren't for me!
We'll go where we please,
And groove with great ease,
Where safety's our guiding decree!"
This limerick perfectly distills the song’s core message: a joyful, anti-establishment declaration of independence on the dance floor. It champions the right to dance individually and freely, making “safety” not about restraint, but about the security of expressing oneself authentically, just as “The Safety Dance” championed.

When love was a play,
And yesterday answered his call.

“Planet Claire” by The B-52s: Reimagined as a limerick
From Claire, a pink-aired domain,
A fast Plymouth caused quite a strain.
No heads could be found,
On that colorful ground,
Where death is unknown to remain.
