There Once was a Young Man from Mousehole
There once was a young man from Mousehole
Who pasties and pastries did gousehole
On his hundredth éclair
He got stuck in his chair
And extracting him proved quite a pousehole.
Who pasties and pastries did gousehole
On his hundredth éclair
He got stuck in his chair
And extracting him proved quite a pousehole.
