There’s a tale I could tell, that needs telling,
maybe a story or two, to be heard,
there’s an ending to the tale, I tell you,
Now, does this sound at all absurd?
There’s a beginning to this tale, that needs telling,
there’s a middle, and more to be told,
but the ending is better than the beginning
so, shall we start there, before we grow old?
I could sing a song about the tale, that needs telling,
but my voice is not great, you see,
and the story would get lost in translation
‘though it would sound quite good to me.
I’ve lost the thread of this tale, that needs telling,
did I begin to tell any of it yet?
well, maybe it’s best just to leave it there,
As my tale I’ve somehow managed to forget!!
