MR SHOOSTER'S ROOSTER

Picture
Mr Shooster's Rooster
Crowed throughout the day
He raised his head
He opened his beak
And cock-a-doodle......neigh......

Neigh? Neigh?
A horse goes neigh throughout the day
But neigh is not what roosters say
This rooster's crow has gone astray
We'll check him right away

They took him for a crowing test
They looked right down his throat
They told him 'crow'
But it came out 'neigh'
And the doctors made a note

They said to Mr Shooster
Your rooster's not quite right
We think that he has horses neigh
He might have caught it yesterday
He doesn't look too bright

They sat the rooster on his perch
And fed him oats and bran
They sprayed his throat
With horseshoe malt
And cooled him with a fan

The rooster jerked
Then coughed and screeched
And then he turned a flip
He coughed again, his eyes were wild
And then he lost his grip

He swung out wide and flipped again
And then his face turned blue
He raised his head
He opened his beak and
Cock-a-doodle-dooooooo
See me on.......
