  Look at this #{@nouns.pop}, isn`t it neat?
  Wouldn`t you think my collection`s complete?
  Wouldn`t you think I`m the #{@nouns.pop}
  The #{@nouns.pop} who has everything?

  Look at this #{@nouns.pop}, treasures untold,
  How many wonders can one #{@nouns.pop} hold?
  #{@present_verbs.pop} around here, you`d think,
  Sure, she`s got everything

  I`ve got #{@plural_nouns.pop} and #{@plural_nouns.pop} a-plenty
  I`ve got who`s-its and what`s-its galore
  You #{@verbs.pop} thing-a-mabobs?
  I`ve got 20.
  But who cares? No #{@adjectives.pop} deal. I #{@verbs.pop} more!
  I wanna be where the #{@plural_nouns.pop} are,
  I wanna see, wanna see `em #{@present_verbs.pop},
  Walkin` around on those
  Whaddya call `em? Oh, #{@nouns.pop}!

  #{@present_verbs.pop} your fins, you don`t get too far,
  Legs are required for #{@present_verbs.pop}, dancin`,
  Strollin` along down the,
  What`s that word again? #{@nouns.pop}
  Up where they #{@verbs.pop},
  Up where they run,
  Up where they stay all day in the #{@nouns.pop}!
  Wanderin` free, wish I could be,
  Part of that #{@nouns.pop}.

  What would I give, if I could live,
  Outta these #{@plural_nouns.pop}?
  What would I pay, to spend a day,
  #{@adjectives.pop} on the #{@nouns.pop}?

  Betcha on #{@nouns.pop} they understand,
  Bet they don`t reprimand their #{@plural_nouns.pop}
  Bright young #{@plural_nouns.pop}, sick of #{@present_verbs.pop}
  Ready to stand!

  And ready to know what the #{@nouns.pop} know,
  Ask `em #{@adjectives.pop} questions, and get some answers,
  What`s a #{@nouns.pop}, and why does it,
  What`s the word? #{@verbs.pop}!

  When`s it my turn?
  Wouldn`t I #{@verbs.pop}?
  #{@verbs.pop} to explore that #{@nouns.pop} up above,
  Out of #{@adjectives.pop} #{@nouns.pop}, wish I could be,
  #{@verbs.pop} of that #{@nouns.pop}

Moar! What about something like this to Objectify:

madlib = MadLib.load('mermaid.madlib')
madlib.fill_in do |part_of_speech|
  puts "give me a #{part_of_speech}>"
  gets.chomp
end

puts madlib
