Once upon a twiddle in a
country type of town
Lived some creatures called
The Yell-ephants
Who always ran around
The Yell-ephants made lots of noise
About the Funda-Mice
And frightened all the girls and boys
Which wasn't very nice!
The leader of the Yella-phants,
a load and sour beast,
Gave speeches on the Yell-ephone
Each night as they would feast
"The Funda-Mice are coming here
To wreck our happy home"
The Yella-phants would scream and cry
as 'round the town they roamed
"The funda-mice, a viscious lot
who plot and scheme all day,
Wish nothing more than
Yell-ephantville Gone
and Blown Away!!!"
"So I declare as Pro-tech-tor
Of Yell-ephantville dear,
To make some changes for the best
To save us all this year!"
I've bid my fellow Yell-ephants
To build a giant tower
Thirty-seven Yell-miles tall
and quite the same size round
The Yell-ephants will live inside
away from all the threats
Come one, come all Ye Yell-epholk
And don't forget your pets"
And yes sir ma'am, as he decreed
The Monolith was built
And when it was, a yellow sheen
like gold, the thing was guilt
So yell-ephants left happy homes,
their businesses and schools,
"Ha ha" they thought,
"We'll teach those Funda-Mice
we aren't no fools"
And deep inside they gathered
in the dark and musty place
The holes they placed around for air
Their only saving grace
A mark on the Horizon
It swayed with gentle breeze
For all the world resembling.....
A Giant hunk of cheese.
And as they slept in quarters cramped
Still shivering with fear....
Guess what...the sound of tiny feet
The Funda-Mice appeared!
Drawn to the giant cheese they saw
From many miles away
They found an empty little town
With no one there that day.
They froliced in the empty town
they had their share of fun
They laughed and sang, while wondering
Where the townsfolk all had gone
"Surely, since they drew us here
with giant slabs of cheese
They'd want for us to thank them
For their hospitalities...
And as they day grew darker
All the mice went to their beds
With visions of that giant cheese
Still dancing in their heads
But the Yell-ephants, to scared to live
with tiny little mice
Stayed trapped in the big stupid thing they concocted and ended up dying of starvation and loneliness and drowning in their own feces because they were stupid.
