Out here in my jungle,
Danger lurks behind each tree,
Poachers, snakes and crockodiles
And loads of killer bees.

Stories of things so much worse,
Have been told for many years,
Of something much more dreaded,
The jungle shakes in fear.

The lions cower and run away,
The natives yell "JU-JU!!"
All the elephants run and hide,
The legends all are true.

This beast is something horrible,
Eats raw meat-bugs and dung,
Its breath will clear a village,
The Swahili pack and run.

You know when he is coming,
From drum beats all in rhyme
There's no escape-not even me
His breath rots out my vines

Army ants go 'AWOL'
Hyena make no sound
It's been said that's why the ostrich,
Sticks it's head beneath the ground.

Anteaters now go hungry,
There are no termite mounds,
The jungle doesn't have a bug
When Balladeer's around.

Smiling all over. Thank you for making my day. This Balladeer sounds like a Tarzan after my own heart.<3

not sure if it's true, but heard a rumour:

Balladeer carries a heavy load
avoiding his 'air' is a hassle
Caused Panama City to implode!
after visiting White Castle

LOL... I see that you're up to your old tricks here, Toe. Perhaps our friend needs to stop suckin' on cans of Raid. Peace.

LOL... We all know that Tarzan swings through the jungle... It seems his brother likes to stir things up. LOL

Kudos to Toezan... as I settle back to wait for the Bugman's revenge. LOL
