| There was a king who wouldn’t smile |
| Sat on the toilet reading «The Trial.» |
| His dogs chased their tails 'round and 'round |
| Midget cars arrived stuffed with clowns who served him quail eggs on toast |
| There was a king who never laughed |
| Fell in love with a two-headed calf |
| Filled his bath with razor blades |
| Tattooed his arm with the ace of spades |
| But the grass made fun of his shoes |
| There was king who cried and cried |
| Mice crawled in his shoes to die |
| He cried so much that herds of deer gathered |
| To lick his salty tears so the king crawled under his bed |
| Like a fish at the bottom of a pail |
| Like a cricketswallowed by a whale |
| Like a chipmunk who’s chewed off his tail |
| The king who wouldn’t smile |
