Gumpity Gump and Croakity Croak

Sir Gumpity Gump was a frog in a stump, And he lived by a pond full of lilies, And he wore rubber boots that were sloppy and loose, But the other frogs thought he looked silly. He hopped through the mud and he swam through the flood, But his boots wouldn't keep out the water, For they filled up inside and it halted his stride, And they soaked up the flood like a blotter. Young Croakity Croak was a frog with a coat, That would keep him dry when it was raining, But the coat didn't work when the water would squirt, So, Young Croakity started complaining. He spoke with Sir Gumpity; said it's not fair, Getting wet through his coat when it's raining, Said he needed some boots that were sloppy and loose, And he kept on complaining, complaining. Sir Gumpity figured he needed a coat, For the boots didn't seem to be working, So they traded right there and they thought it was fair, But the weather got wetter and murky. Now Gumpity Gump always hides in his stump, For the coat doesn't keep out the water, And young Croakity Croak has two feet that are soaked, For his boots lap it up like a blotter.
