- Muff the Tragic Wagon
- (to the tune of "Puff the Magic Dragon")
Thanks to Nora McColl, who e-mailed me this song!
Chorus:
- Muff the tragic wagon, lived by the street,
- And rolled along the boulevard, through rain and snow
and sleet.
- Little Tommy Pumpkin loved that wagon Muff,
- And rolled him home and filled him up, with toys and
other stuff.
- Together they would travel, along the avenue,
- Tommy hanging out his leg would scuff his Sunday shoe.
- Taxi cabs and buses would honk as they went by,
- Tragic wagons never seem to need to stop for gas.
Children live forever, but not so children's toys,- Wagons can't forever be a friend to little boys.
- And one gray day it happened while Tommy took his nap,
- A garbage truck ran over Muff and turned him into scrap.
Little Tommy Pumpkin said just off the cuff, - There will never be another tragic wagon Muff.
