This couple had just got married and they were bashful and they got dressed for bed and both jumped into bed and there was nobody to turn out the light, so they decided they'd tell riddles to see who'd turn out the light. So she said, Two and two are four, Four and five are nine; I can see your thing But you can't see mine.
