Poor Doc Moose didn't have no friends.
He lived his life alone
He bought a huge robotics book
And built himself a clone.

That clone looked just like Doc Moose did
As ugly as could be
And every word that left his mouth
Was pure profanity.

The doctor loved to cuss a lot..
Of that you could be sure
But that clone made poor Doc Moose look
Like some poor amateur.

When they went out on double-dates
His mouth embarrassed Moose
Until Doc made his mind up
That he had to cut him loose.

He said, "We're going out today..
A picnic, if you will."
Then took the clone up high atop
Deer Rockabilly Hill.

The opportunity arose...
Doc pushed him to his death!
The clone screamed out obscenities
Until his final breath!!!!

A forest ranger wandered by,
Placed Doc in custody.
The moose man screamed out in dismay,
"Why are you arresting me?!?"

"No need to plead your innocence
Because I saw it all.
I'm placing you under arrest because
You made an obscene clone fall!!"

It's too early in the morning to laugh like this.  Really it is.

As the foul-mouthed clone fell from the mountainous heights
Gothams' students awoke to his hideous cries
Like a scene taken out of some brooding film noir
all eyes shift to the jumble of stones where he lies

Then back up to the peak where enshrouded in clouds
The much maligned Doctor doth ponder out loud
"T'would appear I'll be hung for the death of that clone,
but by Batmans' blue suit I'll not go down alone"

" Ol' Commissioner Gordon  I'm sure'd like to hear
'bout the role played in this by Goth Lord Balladeer
whose connivings have cast our whole school under pall
of a darkness which threatens to consume us all"

My Dear Readers, sit tight, on this mess I shall brood
on how best to portray some true "Goth" attitude.

Alison woke up to laughter, and I'm going to bed chuckling.  You can knock us all over with a feather.

Let me make this perfectly clear.
No one can handle the Lord Balladeer.
Beware, Doctor Moose. Better stick with your clone
Or the next body falling could well be your own!!

Never one from a threat or a promise to shirk
The good Doctor gets down to some Gothic type work
He must send out a sign, a Moose light 'gainst the clouds
All of Gotham shall see that he is well endowed

With a Jokers' quick wit and a masterful pen
and of course other things I'll not mention again
Modesty as it were at all times must prevail
Even when one is faced with the prospects of jail

With the signal light lit, now it's anyones' guess
Who might join in to help me get out of this mess

All is gloom and despair 'neath the ominous clouds
Gotham city below half obscured in the murk
Dr. Moose on the lam, or to jail he will go
While nearby evil forces continue to work

For a moment too brief, there is one ray of hope
As her name would imply Sunshine lights up the sky
Shedding light that I see we have guests, Ok Rose,
Many thanks, you're a gem I'm so glad you dropped by

Then the pall that has spread from the Goth Lords dark lair
Blocks the sun, once again we descend into gloom
Will the Doctor make good his escape from the law
Or will Balladeers' Gothic workshop be his doom?

All of Gotham it seems is now under this curse
For the Joker's depressed and the Penguin is worse
Two-Face cries on both sides about what's going down
As the scandalous news spreads 'round old Gotham town

Mister Freeze can't chill out, Poison Ivy's got rash
Even Riddler chipped in posting my bail in cash
I hear Scarecrow's afraid of Catwomans' purr-suit
So I'm still on the lam, now ain't that downright cute!

And it's all cuz that "Deer" said I killed off my clone
Oh, but wait, that ain't right, stop the press, hold the phone!
For he said what I built for a friend was a "bot"
Are those two things the same? Holy poem! I think not!

For you see my dear readers "Deers'" logic is flawed
Killing robots, as yet, has still not been outlawed.

No robot, Moose. It was a clone that you threw off  the cliff.
I’ll make sure you’re convicted and the prison sentence stiff.
You should have stayed beside yourself, which is your normal state
But, no, you had to kill the other half and seal your fate.

There’s no escape from Gotham City. Exits have been closed.
Security is tighter than a fat gal’s pantyhose.
Your day will come to pay for how you treat your fellow, er ,clone
And you will pay the penalty by living life alone.

At this point Balladeer m'friend you should make up your mind
A "robotics book" for building "clones" is pretty hard to find
That would be a "genetics book" I am inclined to think
And also that there's something wrong with your magnetic ink

Of late when you've been posting things some things become obscured
Which makes it look like you're the clone that's swearing, every word
I only point this out m'friend that you'd not seem a cuss
So ornery that he must swear each time he speaks to us.

As for this so called "clone" m'friend, if I might re-direct
That Ranger who was passing by was blind I do suspect
For saying he did see me do the deed most surely sir
could only be prefabricated nonsense as it were

In Gotham where the light of day has dimmed by your misdeeds
One cannot tell a clone apart from topiaried weeds
I call Sir Edward Scissorhands, though not from Gotham folks
He'll swear he carved my likeness on that cliff just for a hoax

And when that ranger happened by he threw it off
the ledge
While listening to some classic stuff performed by Percy Sledge

Forget  the silly balderdash...you're winding up in court.
The jury then will see that you are one ungodly sort
But, staring at your countenance, they may find undeniable
That killing such a clone could be  considered justifiable.

Though every person knows that you are guiltier than sin,
As we have found out lately, it don't mean that you won't win.
Kill a baby, kill an ex-wife and her waiter friend
And you'll be found not guilty in this crazy world we're in.
Perhaps they'll make a movie with George Cloney as the star,
A tale of love gone very wrong which turned into a war.
You’ll wind up rich and famous and the hero of the day
Which goes to show that, once again,  crime will always pay.

But I don’t care. I’ll hunt you down, no matter where you go.
You’ll not escape the  Balladeer, your never-tiring foe.
Just clone around all that you want...your end is coming near.
No one escapes the clutches of the hero Balladeer.!

Though it seems as you say many guilty  go free
In this case once again I'm afraid that's  not me
I will not find myself in a court, no just cause
For without any proof, I've not broke any laws

Edward Scissor Hands scupted my likeness from weeds
It was he pushed it off and not me did the deed
Last I knew law must have a dead body for proof
But I smoked all the evidence up, it went poof!

It's a dark dreary day in Gotham so far
We respect you m'friend for all that you are
But to try to peg murder of clone on a moose
One can only conclude that you've got a screw loose

Oh and btw, will you please fix that thing with your computer it's getting really annoying.
Doc

What's up with that? Your keyboard get funky?  Heck , if you can stand it, I guess I can, not too many people around here put up with me as it is. Besides, I'm having too much fun with our little sparring match.

It appears our Goth Lord's overcome by despair
As his keyboard's in desperate need of repair
Either that or his 'puter has become possessed
Get thee out 'puter demons! Dare thee not to infest

Not one bit of our leaders' internal hard drive
Rom or Ram, floppy disc, motherboard, all that jive
I command you to leave in the name of all PIP
Get thee out most post haste, and don't give me no lip!

Meawhile back in dark Gotham the story line hangs
In a state of suspension, not that most give a dang
Whether I quite unjustly am hung from a noose
Or shall soon be aquitted and issued a truce

As some things that I write may be over the top
When I go for a laugh it's sometimes hard to stop
