Grandpa's Goof

( to the tune of "Yankee Doodle") Grandpa went to nursery school To fetch his darling grandson; Put the boy inside his car, But somehow not the planned one. Grandpa made a little goof; Boys had outfits matchin’. Sound like just a mix-up, not An evil plan he’s hatchin’. Why, though did the boy he took Not recognize a stranger? Luckily for all, he wasn’t In what we’d call danger. Next time, grandpa stays at home To study grandkids’ faces; So hopefully, he’ll recognize The next one he replaces!

We've got to cure this disease. Mistaking and forgetting as you please. It's like selective hearing, my god, who's steering? No need to take it so seriously. Just rightousness living deliriously. I wonder who was more scared when it was all over. Whewwww? Peace. :)
