Eat too much cantaloupe,
Turn into an antelope,
Grow antlers as high as the sky,
All the birdies will fly by
And sit on your antlers nice and high.
"Feed me," they'll say,
"I'm hungry today"
You reply
"No way!
"Go away
"Go away."
Away they'll fly from the mean antelope
Off to eat their own cantaloup.
And so they do
And become you
With antlers as high as the sky
Turning up noses at birds flying by
Humph!
