Visit foreign lands
Meet interesting people
And shout "Andale!"

Two mouths and four ears
Two blond 'dos and four fast legs
Yet they have no eyes

You're last to the mat.
The eyebrow up, all is lost.
Philimination!

Racing very hard,
Breathing heavy, legs are weak,
And then you hear: "ZAAAAAAAAACH!!!"

Dating for twelve years,
Have yet to get some in bed,
Feeling hot and tight.

Many teams don't read,
Wander aimlessly in vain,
Yet to get a clue.

I gotta get me a G.i.i.t.T. T-shirt...

You fly, drive and run
Your cause is most worthy, but...
Who's your Deity?

("Deity" has three syllables... right???)

The way I pronounce it, it does.

The Sheep Whisperer
Tries to make White Sheep listen
But it's all in vain.

A hat for hating,
But arms that stomped Tokyo
Make for an, "mmm, sigh".

Where is that clue box?
Whaddya mean across the street?
Okay-- ooh, roulette!

We're first to arrive.
What is with the eyebrow, Phil?
Oh. What clue was that?

Came in close to last.
Might not last that much longer.
We need better clues.

This is fun!

Annoying twin girls
Share an unspoken language
Manipulation

Everyone is lost
Clues scream, “why can’t you see us?”
People walk on by


Colin and Brandon
Both have bad hair and models
Please shave Brandon's head

Edited because D'uh! 7 syllables NOT 8. My only excuse was that it was midnight and that I was doped up on allergy medication.
Thanks bubbaboy8

DuchessKitty, your second middle line has 8 syllables. Not to be picky or anything...

The new Yield option
Looks incredibly stupid.
Bring back Fast Forwards!

ETA: To clarify WHICH second line

(Having done Kami/Karli above)

Trying to be nice
Is hard while running a race.
Way to finish last!

A parent gives his all
Endures pain and bleeds in vain
The child feels nothing

Always together
Sharing whatever they can
Even their mistakes

He is so intense
She is such pretty plastic
They are bland TV

Racers invoke God
He gazes down upon them
Looking for the soap

Dwarf and a giant
The tall one falls to the ground
Little one stands tall

Second chance at love
The Internet forms a bridge
Chance to win it all

Seeing all the fun
Carefully choosing the path
Cool heads wear helmets

Viewers, please take note:
Misogynistic Pizza
Ain't in New England.

Shut up, you famewhore.
Your fifteen minutes are up.
Take your boy-toy home.

Charla can block shots
Even without movement! Quick!
Sign her up, pronto!

Watch your pageant date
Trying to eat caviar.
Manson Lamps go on.

Nice enough to join
The late bus group, leech flights then
Eat your way to first.

Chip and Kim:

Caviar is gross
But bottom-feeding is worse
Chip shovels it down

Charla and Mirna:

“¿Dónde es?” she yells
Spinning in circles. Weirdest
Night in that man’s life

Brandon and Nicole:

Godly team aligns
With evil in hot rollers
The Moppet returns!

Kami and Karli:

Kooky and krazy!
Except for not. Blonde twins give
Eugene a bad name

Karen and Linda:

“Whee!” Linda screeches
Pink bowling shirt all a-glow
Karen: “Dude, shut up.”

Colin and Christie:

Vodka, caviar
Chocolate. He should handle
Eating from now on.

Marshall and Lance:

“Despicable!” True.
But the enemy of my
Enemy: my friend
