Alligator Pie

Alligator Pie

I Met a Man

As I was going up the stair

Alligator pie, alligator pie,

If I don’t get some I think I’m gonna die.

Give away the green grass, give away the sky, But don’t give away my
alligator pie.

Alligator stew, alligator stew,

If I don’t get some I don’t know what I’ll do. Give away my furry hat,
give away my shoe, But don’t give away my alligator stew.

Alligator soup, alligator soup,

If I don’t get some I think I’m gonna droop. Give away my hockey-stick,
give away my hoop, But don’t give away my alligator soup.

I met a man who wasn’t there.

He wasn’t there again today— Oh! how I wish he’d go away!

Pie Problem

by Shel Silverstein

If I eat one more piece of pie, I’ll die!

If I can’t have one more piece of pie, I’ll die!

So since it’s all decided I must die,

I might as well have one more piece of pie. MMMM—000H—MY!

Chomp—Gulp—‘Bye.

The Dragon of Grindly Grun

by Shel Silverstein

I’m the Dragon of Grindly Grun, I breathe fire as hot as the sun. When a
knight comes to fight I just toast him on sight, Like a hot crispy
cinnamon bun.

When I see a fair damsel go by, I just sigh a fiery sigh, And she’s
baked like a ‘tater— I think of her later

With a romantic tear in my eye.
