THE EGGMAN AND THE WALRUS

the sun beat down hot that day

on the Eggman and the Walrus

so ventured they out to play

the Eggman and the Walrus

.

they spied the ruins of the Coda Pool

hid beneath Old Winter's leaves

water deep and blue and cool

the Eggman doffed his sleeves

.

into the Pool the Walrus waded

ice water bit his feet

his visions of bathing swiftly faded

and he beat a quick retreat

.

But the Eggman was within his shell

and feeling world-bold

and from his smile one could tell

that he would not mind the cold

.

The Eggman toured the water's shore

splashing around the rim

the Walrus sighed, he knew the score

the Eggman would wish to swim

.

the Walrus blew through his moustache

he tightly grit his teeth

hitting the water with a generous splash

he disappeared beneath

.

the water was like the Artic Sea

the cold snapped open his eyes

he bellowed a submariene "IIEEEEE!!"

felt his flesh crystalize

.

he shot to the surface, gasping air

he felt his lips turn blue

he almost levitated right out of there

but the Eggman held him true

.

the Eggman came forth from his shell

looked into Walrus eyes

he jumped and bid the shore farewell

and recieved a cold surprise

.

the shock rendered the Eggman dumb

cold tore his breath away

as his body began to numb

he gave a cry of "yaaaaay!"

.

the water fit them like a second skin

round the Coda Pool did they gyre

until gloaming fell and they went within

to warm themselves beside the fire

.

and so goes the tale of how the day was won

by the Eggman and the Walrus

'till both asleep fell, Father and Son

the Eggman and the Walrus
