The Jester Song

By: Krosan Posted on: June 12, 2005

Harl'quin suits and colored shells
Wild dances and ringing bells
Balloons flying like a red rubber zoo
Firecrackers pouring like rain on you!
I laugh to see, this sight so great
A Jester in full flight, it's first-rate!
Decks of cards and lead-stuffed socks
Ducks of rubber and head-thumpin' rocks
Heaping piles of so much laughter
This maddened fool, we love him after
With two words-just Hocus Pocus
Ya see a scene that's just a joke-us
Flying colors and whirling cards
Sleight of hand and circus yards!
Don't blink or else you'll miss the show
Jugglin' bombs 're about to BLOW!

But now, it's time, to finally stop
He's done, it's fine, but ready to drop
Someone get out this good man's pay
He'll dance again another day

(Author's Note: This is more of a song than anything else. It must be read aloud, and speeds up as the reader gets closer to the end, becoming almost too fast to recite at the last line. The second section simply serves to close the piece. Thank you for your time!)
