I found some more:

An apple a day keeps the doctor away.
A better technique is to say you can’t pay.

Never seek to tell thy love
The one-night stands you’re guilty of.

The moving finger writes, and having writ,
Looks for someplace classy to submit.

When in disgrace with fortune and men's eyes,
Henry Kissinger won the Nobel Prize.

When forty winters shall besiege thy brow,
Botox brings the springtime back somehow.

Th' expense of spirit in a waste of shame
Can lead to giant book contracts and fame.

“You are old, Father William,” the young man said.
“That is true,” said Father William, “but it beats being dead.”

I know that I shall meet my fate,
But God, I hope it’s running late!

I must down to the seas again, to the lonely sea and the sky,
And all I ask is a Dramamine and some juice to swallow it by.

Sundays too my father got up early.
No wonder he was always so darn surly.
