How funny. I could not help but think "Y' what?" stood out a bit awkwardly, unrhymed among all the other lines. Also, the end became rather burdened by rhymes with "bones," which left me with a feeling that you were running out of momentum.

Those last seven lines, though, were priceless with that play of "tenor" and "fiver."
