In my language there are some humorous answers that you can use in response to some questions either not to answer or hust to be funny (these answers are informal and you often use them only with friends or other close people). These sentences rhyme the questions. I think we kind of have the same thing in English.
e.g. -......... . Why ? - cuz the sky is high and pigs can't fly. Do we have such answers for "when?" "where?" "how?" "how come?" "what?" or other things ?

We don't rhyme our humorous retorts where I come from. Perhaps the Cockneys do.
