Poem Artwork

I went swimming in the river

And it gave me quite a scare

The fish all started biting

And I got no underwear

 

Oh I’m Tarzan

And I always get bad news

Don’t even ask me why now

I got the Cheetah cheatin’ blues

 

I was walking with my elephant

When it stopped to lift its tail

A splattering special delivery

And it wasn’t the US mail

 

Oh I’m Tarzan

And I always get bad news

Don’t even ask me why now

I got the Cheetah cheatin’ blues

 

Ever since our naughty little boy

Grew up to be a man

The sleazy chimps all follow him

He’s the main stud of their clan

 

Oh I’m Tarzan

And I always get bad news

Don’t even ask me why now

I got the Cheetah cheatin’ blues

 

When I woke up in my jungle bed

The skies were pouring rain

I looked across the tree house floor

And saw Cheetah doin’ Jane

 

Oh I’m Tarzan

And I always get bad news

Don’t even ask me why now

I got the Cheetah cheatin’ blues

 

In the distance I hear native drums

The message makes me mad

It says call 1-800-Jane

She’s the best you ever had

 

Oh I’m Tarzan

And I always get bad news

Don’t even ask me why now

I got the Cheetah cheatin’ blues

 

I fell out of the tree again

Another broken vine

I think that Cheetah’s out to get me

Cause those knife marks are not mine

 

Oh I’m Tarzan

And I always get bad news

Don’t even ask me why now

I got the Cheetah cheatin’ blues

Holy Mackerel, Batman - what's this world come to when a guy can't even trust his trusty sidekick anymore.

And now I wonder if Batman had the same problem, with Robin??!!

This new generation don't know from Tarzan and his horny chimp, Cheetah. But I, as one of a far different, a far earlier generation, I know of Tarzan and his English mistress Jane... Uh, back then "mistress" didn't always mean what "mistress" means now. However, all this chit-chat out of the way, very cute and funny Tarzan story and, I might ask, when's the last time anyone did a Tarzan story? A funny Tatzan story, by the way.
