Lyrics
I had a blast; it did not last.
I woke that morn, when night had passed,
and found some choc'late in my ear.
I yelled, "Who dare mess up my hair?
"My golden locks of strands so fair
"Have been soiled up while I slept here."
Alas the stuff was yet enough
to clog my ear, on hair, 'twas tough.
He got me, that sly choc'latier.
I got him back while running track.
I planted in each shoe a tack;
he cried many a sorry tear.
He hurt his feet so took a seat,
and, oh, how my revenge was sweet,
but so's the choc'late in my ear.
