sir daddy leopard
Sir Daddy Leopard had income tax woes, issues that stomped his toes.
He put on his suit, and went to work, saying “this blows!”
His children had asked him for money time and again.
Giving you money for free would be a loss, not a win.
“You need to give them fifteen thou apiece,” said his accountant man.
He thought it would spoil them, especially his lazy daughter Fran.
The IRS is going to get more than your share unless you do,
So Sir Daddy Leopard decided to give money and tried not to be blue.
Fran was thrilled and kept kissing and hugging her dad.
This is more money than I’ve ever had!
He felt much better after that, bragging about what he had done.
The other two children blew theirs on silliness but had lots of fun.
