2017
There was once a man named James
He entered the Olympic Games
The event he entered was throwing a dog
But he got disqualified as it was secretly a wog
He was devastated as he went home
Because people called him a gnome
This was in fact true
His father a rabbit and his mother a shrew
He was framed for murder for killing a number of dogs
He hopped away and joined a colony of frogs
The king frog boomed who goes there
And scared off all of James’s hair
He was afraid of dying in the winter
Because he secretly had a splinter
This splinter was located in his head
And his hair was protecting him from being dead
Om gosh he shouted with rage
He smashed and bashed and worked with a mage
This mage was very wise
And he creamed all of James’s pies
These pies were famous for
Popping up near a strangers door
The strangers would shout yippee
As they ate creamed pies with glee
James ate one of these pies
Then his hair grew back and he flew away on butterflies
