Cousin Claire
Listen to Colin ...
The doctor who examined cousin Claire
Was shocked when he discovered something rare:
As in one ear he shone a light
Which out the other beamed as bright,
“Aha!” he diagnosed, “there’s nothing there!”
Was shocked when he discovered something rare:
As in one ear he shone a light
