This is going to sound a bit silly but here goes! So I had DD 7 months ago and DP made up a little snippet of a song about her. He just makes the words up on the spot but I'm not in any way musical or creative and I can never remember his. She loves the song, it always stops her crying, but I would really like to be able to do more than one verse. I see people on here making up poems really quickly and I wondered if anyone could think of jobs that rhyme?

So it goes ...Wesley, oh Wesley, you can be whatever you want to be.. you could be a train driver or a scuba diver, swimming with the fish in the sea 😂

If anyone can think of any I'd be very grateful! Also awaiting any comments for the name choice 😬

I'm trying to think of something for engineer - after coming up with musketeer, muleteer and fusilier which are a bit obscure/archaic I've hit on 'brewer of beer'.
