A WHEEL FRIEND
MY FRIEND HE HAS TWO RUBBER LEGS
AND BONES THEY'RE MADE OF STEEL
HE LIVES OFF NOTHING BUT COMPRESSED AIR
AND DOES'NT NEED A MEAL
HIS BACKSIDE HAS A LEATHER SEAT
HIS ARMS HAVE RUBBER GRIPS
HIS EYES,ONE WHITE,THE OTHER RED
FOR DOING NIGHT-TIME TRIPS.
AND WHEN HE'S SICK AND HAS TO REST
A PUNCTURED LIMB DEPRESSED
I PUT A PATCH UPON HIS WOUND
AND SOON HE IS REFRESHED
WHAT WOULD I DO WITHOUT MY PAL
I'VE NEVER SEEN THE LIKE
WE'VE RODE THE WHOLE WORLD OVER
MY FRIEND THE HUMBLE BIKE.
