So to anger him, -I hid his ducky. without him looking.
Silly tyrant, -I never give up. Let it go, if I were you, -to save your own rump. Stop these insane attacks, -they’re getting old fast. I get right back on track, -I know you’ve been told, -I’ll never be sold, -Back into the fold.
Mock him I must confess, -ba-na-na-na-na, when I say, ‘Yessss’!
Meggy nodded, -his plan was topnotch. Mess with the timeline, -not on my watch! Well, isn’t that just prime, -his plans will be botched. Merged my spark with the truck, -grew five times his size! -Now look at him cry. -Sent his Preds home to hide.
