I came across this little rhyme, reportedly dating back to the early days of electrical power in Britain:
Quote
Lord Finchley tried to mend the electric light, It struck him dead and serve him right, It is the duty of a wealthy man, To give employment to the artisan.
I learned that as a kid!, as "Billy will drink no more." H2SO4=sulfuric acid. (Also, when I was about 8 we had a trash can that was labelled "Potassium Cyanide")
