Crazy Sports Coach

Crazy Sports coach had a plan
He wanted highly talented team
All pregnant mothers in the city
he called to his class of agility
He asked them to trot, swim
frog jump every morn,
and dozens of sports activities
he made them carry out
saying;

 “Babies in the womb
will learn skills in advance
as they form in the pre-natal life
After birth hand them all to me
You’ll see miracle from heaven.
World records they will break.
This club shall be great
Members will earn money
Their dollars shall be many-
as many as fleas on beer pot.
Their cars in this city
shall be as countless as maggots
in bull dung on riverside.”
