The Toucan

❦

Tell me who can
Catch a toucan?
Lou can.

Just how few can
Ride the toucan?
Two can.

What kind of goo can
Stick you to the toucan?
Glue can.

Who can write some
More about the toucan?
You can!

Mama said I'd lose my head / If it wasn't fastened on.

How many slams in an old screen door? / Depends how loud you shut it.

Tell me I'm clever, / Tell me I'm kind,

I said, I'll take the T-bone steak. / A soft voice mooed, Oh wow.
