Maybe an animation narration here...(begun in the mid 1980s, bits found on a micro cassette from that "era"):
Said Laura Palmetto McGregory Toon
“I just read a story that ended too soon!
Oh sure, it had gremlins and dragons unnumbered,
And even a princess in eternal slumber.
The problem’s the story just ended too soon!”
Said Laura Palmetto McGregory Toon
Said Laura Palmetto McGregory Toon
She went to her granny’s, found all the best books
She read them in crannies, she read them in nooks.
She read them with cookies piled high upon lace,
She read them so close she smeared ink on her face.
She read them at night, with her little flash lightie,
She read them all cuddled in a blue flannel nightie.
A distraction appeared, as a canine named Beet
(But he'd answer to "Boo!" or "Come Here for a
Treat!")
She taught him to sit, to roll over, and stay
But found he liked books in a very wrong way...
She read tawdry romances - novels - adventures!
(And a medical essay on ugly old dentures).
She read about people from Kalamazoo
She read about hormones (and made a few, too).
She planned a career filled with keyboards and easels,
And was vaccinated against getting three-day-old measles
She never found princes, nor flared dragons, either,
Just boy after boy all determined to tease her.
She was married once, she was married twice:
The first one for love, the other for vice.
She had a sweet daughter, the usual way,
Who turned 17 and then sauntered away.
So what was this story that caused all this strife?
It wasn’t a story, it was simply a life.
So while it lacked princes, it gave a good slumber
And moments of happiness too many to number.
“The problem’s the story just ended too soon!”
Said Laura Palmetto McGregory Toon.
