Humbly Boo
Poetry
Humbly Boo Did I tell you the story of Humbly Boo The Uriah Heep of the clan He was a nastiest piece of work Since the time when Boo souls began He found a small spider and pulled of its legs He did this while out on parole He then put in, the old kitchen sink And rolled it right down the plug hole. He'd hide his bad side to make out he's good A Boo on a holy crusade! The miss Boo's they loved him, because of his charm But soon all the miss's were kissed. | But one day it's told, when Humbly was cold. He looked back on life with a sigh If only he'd taken his mother's advice And learned that the end sure was nigh Before him now stood, a man in a hood A sight which now filled him with dread For there was the axe that many had felt On their necks, just before they were dead. So endeth the story of Humbly Boo A villain right to the end Justice was done, to the Humbly One Who drove everyone quite round the bend! [Tony Matthews 2002] |
