The classic poem by Tyrone Greene, the prisoner character played by Eddie Murphy during his “Saturday Night Live” heyday:

Images by Tyrone Greene

Dark and lonely on a summer’s night.

Kill my landlord. Kill my landlord.

Watchdog barking. Do he bite?

Kill my landlord. Kill my landlord.

Slip in his window. Break his neck.

Then his house I start to wreck.

Got no reason. What the heck?

Kill my landlord. Kill my landlord.

C-I-L-L my land lord!
