George
and the Big 3 Rap
Now my name is George
and I live in Wisbech
I don't like adventure
But I do like peach
I strode to see
my sister one day.
But I lost my cloak
Upon the way.
Now the trees were thick,
ferns all around.
I looked up, I looked down,
And I searched on the ground.
But my special cloak
I could not see,
Till I found it at last
Behind the mossy tree.
But when I picked it up,
It was not quite right.
It turned into a crocodile
And tried to bite!
First I jumped
Then began to dance,
Till the crocodile got the hang of it
And began to prance.
And while the crocodile
Was otherwise busy,
I sneaked off
In a terrible tizzy.
When I got to my sister's
I hid under the bed,
and I refused to come out
Until that crocodile was dead!
