Stay Or Go

Went shopping for new underpants
In the hope I might find some romance
Half way to the shop, bumped into a cop
Who held up his hand and said, “Stop.”

He told me, “The road ahead’s blocked,
turn back or you’re gonna be shocked.”
Then there was a teeth jarring yell
And he ran like a ferret from hell

I stared at the road up ahead
And the thing I saw filled me with dread
A spider the size of a horse
Ate a puppy with little remorse

It chewed it and spat out its bones
Ate the owner to silence his groans
Did I believe what I could see?
I did when it moved towards me

Well I’m not gonna kid you, I fled
Which made perfect sense in my head
Had I stayed, there would be no romance
But I’d sure need those new underpants
