Frumious Banderdash

 




Twas froznatch in the Hampton shire

When Banderdash did sally forth

And all the citiwhenish mob did come inspired

In from the whirling snoggloombroth.



The Churchmugeonfolk were there in force

But some hobbitfolk as well

The mediator fully cloaked did burble to the stageysource

And then the vocalwags did in chorus swell.





Oh, do not wrest our rightful tithe!

From our Drumhum school

We have stole it fair and squaresythe

Through, uffish, whiffling and deep murky pool.





And Banderdash did finally rise

And spoke of Jefferson in mome beamish wisdom

But, oh the Churchmugeonfolk did despise

The Banderdash's vorpal sword, dripping in lawyerishsom.



Mightily did Banderdash  swing and smite and sizzle

Through all that uffish tugley snipe in which resentment did drizzle.

Do not tell us, rathoutgrabe, how to rapeplundersizzle

Our own towntreasureglade which Godabove did us mizzle 

To our fairishshuff church, forsooth, and schoolbizzle.



And thus did Banderdash in defeat slugchurlishly on home

While  galumphing out went the Churchmugeonfolk aglome

And Calooh! Callay! Oh frabjous day! 

The townmuggles did wardubble

We have won again! 

And Jefferson and Banderdash are laid back in their woozy puddle!
