Little Larry Lightfoot
Was slightly round the bend.
One night he went out dancing
With Emily, his friend.
But Larry was compulsive
And once the dancing started,
It seemed that Larry and his dance
Could simply not be parted.
He quickly put his left leg in
And then he took it out.
And then he put it in again
And shook it all about.
And as he got the hang of it
Old Larry danced much faster.
With flailing limbs and mighty leaps
He courted a disaster.
On and on he danced for hours,
A little jumping Gnome
Poor Emily was quite distraught.
The band had all gone home.
Although, from his exertions,
He was so pale and thin,
He still attempted one more time
To put his whole self in.
The effort was too much for him.
The outcome was no joke – he
Simply danced himself away…..
….committed Hokey-Cokey.
