King Louis
King Louis of France
Was looked on by many askance
Then the people said fooey to Louis
And made their selection: Chop Suey
Old King Louis got everything wrong
Told his wife in a touching swan song
“I think it’s for the best
Get it off of my chest”
Made his exit quite short, not so long
King Louis in or out of doors
Loved to dress in silky drawers
When asked “Do they feel alright?”
He said: ”Yes, when they’re pulled up tight”
