(AMUSES)
The horse's owner gave him a sweet zebra
By whom he had been quite smitten
The next morning the owner was shocked
To see him all scratched and bitten.
'Good gracious! Whatever happened?'
'Well, she was like three kicking llamas
I spent the whole night just trying
To remove those damn pyjamas!'

(MUSES)
'I love you because I need you'
His declaration touched my heart's core.
'I need you because I love you'
Wait – which declaration said more?
