**************************************************************

Hi ya! What the...?.....written by Heinzs

On the verge of comatosis,
Near the itchy big sea water,
Lived a tribe of gentle red men
Known for random acts of kindness.
Fed they ducklings by the water -
Fed them to the snapping turtle.
In the village lived a princess,
loved at once by two young warriors.
Falling Rocks was one year older,
Running Bear was one year younger,
Both in love with fair Nokomis.
She must choose, but which one is it?
They should have a hunting contest!
Send them out into the forest...
Full of trees, the scary forest.
Hunt for deer, must get a big buck -
Lots of antlers for a hat rack.
Running Bear brought back the first one -
Big he was with pointy hat rack.
Falling Rocks dragged back another -
Maybe twins - just like the other!
Sweet Nokomis could make no choice -
Send them out again, the hunters.
Hunt for bear, the brave young warriors!
Many days went by - one morning
Running Bear returned with fur coat.
Grizzly bear, and what a beauty!
Modeled for the whole darn village.
Now Nokomis starts to worry -
Falling Rocks has been so long gone!
Send the bloodhounds and the posse,
Bring the warrior back to wigwam -
Mama's wigwam, nice and cozy.
All they found... one lonely sandal
And a quiver full of arrows.
Now they really start to worry -
Looking high and low they're looking,
Ask the beaver and the muskrat,
Tell the mighty totem eagle.
On the highways and the byways
Place the many roadway markers...
We can see them yet to this day -
"Watch for Falling Rocks", they say!
