My dad took me to a hockey game I got hit in the head by a puck I yelled out -- OW! My head! Ow! Call an ambulance! Ouch! Ow! Oh, brother, this hurts! Put ice on it! It's gonna swell! I got a big old purple lump on my head And used it for Show and Tell.

Jimmy Goes to the City by Arthur Read

Jimmy was a happy ape Until some hunters caught him He liked the jungle better than The city where they brought him The city was louder The city was meaner Even the dirt in the jungle was cleaner So Jimmy made a daring escape! The hunters were suddenly minus one ape! He climbed the tallest building Because from there he'd see How far away the jungle was From the middle of the city. Jimmy jumped into a passing plane But the pilot didn't wait for him to explain Jimmy flew back to the jungle And told his ape friends in their lair "The city's okay for a visit But you couldn't make me live there."
