There was a small boy from Maine
Who couldn’t remember his name.
His friends thought him dumb
When he sucked on his thumb
So he left town on a train.

There was an old man from Spain
Who liked to fight bulls in the rain
But one day he fell
And no one could tell
That he was in very bad pain.

There was an old woman from Maine
Who liked to drive cars in the rain
But one day she crashed
Which made a big splash
And then she was hit by a train.

There was a small boy from our school
Who really thought himself cool.
The girls thought him great
And a rather nice date
But we think that he was a fool.

There once was a man from the street
Who didn’t know what he should eat
So rather than snoring
He said, “This is boring!”
And wondered why he couldn’t sleep.

There once was a man from the zoo
Who didn’t know what he should do
So rather than zoom
He fell on his broom
When he heard the monkey say boo!

There was an old woman from space
Who liked to drive cars in a race
But one day she crashed
And got a bad rash
And that was the end of her face.

There once was a man from France
Who didn’t know what he should dance
So rather than move
He sat on his roof
And wondered why he couldn’t prance.

There was a short man from Maine
Who didn’t like the rain
So one day he raced
But forgot a shoelace
Then he tripped and was in very bad pain.

There was a small boy from our school
Who didn’t know how to be cool
He wore disco pants
While trying to dance
And then picked his nose with a tool.

There once was a man from the street
Who didn’t know what he should eat
So rather than die
He ate a whole pie
Then decided to suck on his feet!

A man from a far away place
Thought he could fit in a suitcase
But then one day in May
He tried it with some hay
And found there was really no space.

There was a small boy from space
Who couldn’t remember his case
All his friends thought him dumb
And rather a thumb
But he was the best of his race.

There was a young dog from Tibet
Who really enjoyed getting wet
But rather than shower
He sniffed up a flower
And then had to go to the vet.
