I was waiting by the road
To catch my ride
When along hopped a toad
 And attached to my side.

Now, what could he have been thinking?
From what pond has this silly frog been drinking?
Oh, Mr. Toad, give me an inkling
But alas, not a winkling.

So there I was, now in reverse mode
Attached to my side
With this one ugly toad
I wanted to go and hide.

I suppose
You know
Mr. toad
That you're exposed.

Don't you need to go
Hop, Hop, Hop away
Come back another day
Go be with other toads to meet
Where there are plenty of bugs to eat.

And he
Looked at me
With his lips undone
And a flip of his tongue. . . . . .

"I thought I had one!"
