A king took a dip in his crown
but (being no merman) he drowned
I’d be willing to bet
that his crown jewels got wet
and his queen, at the castle, just frowned.
She’d told him to stay home and rule,
but the King was a beach-seeking fool.
She knew that he oughta
stay out of the water
or at least stay home by the pool.
But the oceanside called to The Man,
saying “Come here! Come play in my sand!”
When he took a quick dip
water seeped through his lips
and his lungs just couldn’t expand.
