It was definitely dark and stormy.
That's my story... and I'm sticking to it. If it hadn't been for Donny and Marie wailing through the crapped out speakers of that weird kids busted boombox, I woulda missed the whole thing.
I'm normally asleep by than, but that kid's parents apparently hate music, temselves, or their kid enough to not solve either the brokern boombox or the Donnie and Marie problem.
Come to think of it. It may have been the Donnie and Marie that caused it all. I'm not up on your common reptiles, but I'm sure the whole thing could have been avoided. And no, I have no idea what the song was, though I guess the title may have made a difference.
Maybe crocodiles may prefer one sone over another... maybe it was attracted by the music. A different song might have made it less hungry. Though, I can' t think of anything that makes me less hungy than Donnie and Marie. Kind of the reverse really... if you catch my drift.
No, he was just sitting there in that folding chair, it was kinda bent before... but not THAT bent. And, it was blue before.. not that kind purply mess it is now.
I have no idea where it came from or where it went, but if the kid liked better music maybe it wouldn't ahve been so annoyed. Who knows. Maybe a little Bobby Darrin once and a while...
... all i'm saying is that I listen to him all the time and thirty foot crocodies don't snap me down in two bites officer.
I blame it on the rain.
Millhouse Vanilla sang what?
Oh, some muscle guys sang a song a while back?
What ate them?
