Brainless.
[From Latin ex- (out of) + cerebrum (brain).]
Brothers:
The wacky medics at Partners-In-Rhyme@... grind out limericks everyday.
The word for the day is excerebrose, which has been used to describe certain clergy.

The brainless, mindless, EXCEREBROSE,
Nonworking head of class otiose*

*unemployed, ineffective, nogoodnik

and results are that "rhyme doesn't pay!"
