Warning Signs: A Paradelle

Please not our alligators to molest

Please not our alligators to molest

Or else to feed our snakes is very bad

Or else to feed our snakes is very bad

To feed our very bad alligators is to

molest our snakes, please not–or else.

 

No catching for the fishes on our pond

No catching for the fishes on our pond

And no to touch the snapping turtle, we asking

And no to touch the snapping turtle, we asking

To touch not on our pond the snapping turtle

we asking, and no the fishes catching.

 

We like to have the visitors, yes

We like to have the visitors, yes

They come by foot and sadly go in box

They come by foot and sadly go in box

Yes, sadly, to box the visitors

come in by foot, we have like.

 

To feed the foot of visitors on our pond

in our bad alligators not very asking

or else to molest our snapping turtle box

by snakes, we catching like to touch

the fishes–come please!

We like to have the visitors, yes!
