Injured Frog


Jumping from lily pad to lily pad
On a nice, warm summer day,
The happy frog
Was on his way.

He made a mistake
And landed on a crocodile's head,
"You're my lunch now
Soon you'll be dead."

Why that poor frog tried to get
Away form the croc's wide, sharp toothed mouth,
Soon that frog
Will be heading down south.

The little frog
Put up a big fight,
He punched and licked
With all his might.

The croc grabbed the frog's leg
And swung him around,
The frog went flying through the air
And hit the ground.

The croc ran after him
And put one foot on his chest,
The frog got himself
In one heck of a mess.

"Now froggie
You are mine,
On your weak body
I will dine."

The frog karate chopped his way out
From underneath the croc's foot,
He hopped on his head
And in the croc's eyes, his fingers, he did put.

They were both
Battered and bruised,
There was no way
The frog was going to lose.

The frog walked away
From the fight,
His chops to the back of the croc's head
Saved the frog's life.

He went back to his house
For his life, he did not beg,
A bandage was aroung his head
In a cast, was his leg.

He was on crutches
And had a cast on his arm,
The croc didn't let the frog
Leave the fight unharmed.
