My Song

Song?

                        Returning home from going out

I was confronted by a sight

A giant thing with tiny eyes

and teeth like dynamite

I slowly ran away from it

It caught me up real quick

I turned to face the ugly brute

The sight made me quite sick

I thought my days were over

My happy time’s all gone

but instead of biting off my head

it offered me a song

A song which I will sing for you

A song of dread and fear

A song that when you hear it

Could turn your bitter queer

Arrooga rooga rooga

Arrooga rooga roo

Arrooga rooga rooga

Arrooga rooga roo

The singing ended instantly

It stopped where it begun

The tiny thing with the giant eyes

was having so much fun

I asked the ghastly demon

Where he learnt that awful song

But much to my amazed surprise

He’d known it all along

I thought it sounded familiar

That enchanting little rhyme

And now I come to think of it

I had known it all the time

Now my troubles are all over

The beast of song is free

I will never forget the haunting sound

of his rambunctious melody.

Arrooga rooga rooga

Arrooga rooga roo

Arrooga rooga rooga

Arrooga, rooga, roo.
