Mystery at the Bottom of a Pile of Papers

So, what happened was, I was cleaning out one of my drawers, and I found this scrap of paper with some scribbled numbers and notations on it. It seems to have something to do with car insurance, which means it's probably about a year old, as I've only owned a car for just about a year and a half. On the back of the paper was something that was clearly in my hand writing, but which I don't remember ever writing, and which I don't really understand. It goes like this:

"Lady," said the Lad,
To the damsel in the square,
"You're not but worth a Derry-o,
Should you tarry there."

She narrowed her eyes and considered her next words carefully. "Fuck off", she announced after a moments pause.

"Oh- HO!", sang out the Lad,
And his eyes danced all a-gleam,
"Your word are but a tit-mouse song,
As he woos the summer stream!"

"Tit-mouse? What? Look, I'm gonna go now. You can 'tarry' if you want, but I'm done." She turned on her heel and strode away, dodging panhandlers and other pedestrians.

"W

And it just kinda stops there, at "W". Now I gotta ask ya, what the hell is all that about? I mean, if it was some weird paper with prophecies or lottery numbers or something, ok, cool. But this just seems plain stupid. So I'm putting it on my blog, which is where all my mind-junk goes.

Enjoy.
