As Tony landed on his feet. He was so heavy they got stuck in the peat. These farmyard antics and traveling show's. Took their toll as they dug up his toes. Dangling Debbie just hung up above. Confused how she felt, devoid of love. No way to get down, they brought in a crane. Now Daring Debbie walks around half insane.

oh, and that's because there was no punctuation before it. hahaha (my argument for using punctuation at all times except to cause people to stumble!)
