Once upon a time
in a world not far away
there was a great big man
who worked hard night and day
he had a slate car park
right where he parked his bike
he saw a horror movie
it’s one he didn’t like
he thought the scenes were boring
the characters were dumb
he knew he’d rate this movie
with a down stroke of his thumb.
