Anti-Dandruff Cornflakes
A kangaroo I used to know
Would jump all day despite the heat
(It's easy when you've got big feet)
He'd first jump fast, and then jump slow
Through tempest, mist and sleet
A koala whom once I met
Would suckle on a mildewed sponge
(And many other sorts of gunge)
He's first stay dry, and then stay wet
Through breakfast, tea and lunch
A kinkajou whose throat I slit
Fell to the ground and lay quite still
(His uncles made me foot the bill)
He first bled lots, then bled a bit
Through poorly, sick and very ill
A kiwi-fruit whose skin I shaved
Would sit in Sainsbury's all day
(Beneath a very small duvet)
He first was good, and then depraved
Through autumn, noon and May
