Right beside the river's bend,
In his bridgeside dwelling,
Lived a man of tallish height,
Little in the telling.
On a frosty winter day,
In the morn that evening,
Feeling run-down by the heat,
He went to the river.
He'd just taken out his rod, Casting it with merit,
When he saw a crocodile - Blue, just like a carrot.
Long they fought, but then the croc Quit their fight unstinting,
And along the shore he crawled At a gallop, sprinting.
Through the field and through the wood, Through thick firs, beyond them...
Suddenly, out of the blue, Wolves flew down upon them.
Then our citizen, in fear, Howled, his legs like jelly.
But the croc didn't even flinch, Nor quite filled his belly.
They, inspired by this great joy, Rode home with pride swelling,
Where our hero settled in In a kennel dwelling.
He wakes everyone at dawn,
Chases rodents gladly,
And when strangers happen by, Will start barking madly.
I've told all just as it was, Honestly (don't wonder).
If a single word's untrue, May I burst asunder!

I am the first! Hurray! I AM THE FIRST!
Mommy, mommy, mommy...

Please no, please no, please no...
End of the line! Ay, ay, ay!

Grandma Alexander Had two merry ganders
One was... grey! and one was... white!
A pair of merry ganders.
One was grey, and one was white, A pair of merry ganders.
They were both aflutter, Splashing by the gutter.
One was grey, and one was white, Hiding in the gutter.
Grandma Alexander Cried "I lost my ganders!
One was grey, and one was white, Oh, my poor ganders.
One was grey, and one was white, Oh, my poor ganders."
Out they were a-coming, To the grandma bowing.
One was grey, and one was white, To the grandma bowing.
