The Jovial Baboon

There once was a jovial baboon 
who loved to put music to spoon 
he came to my house 
quiet as a grouse 
until he pulled out his bassoon

I can picture this baboon banging with a spoon....could be mind shattering; perhaps the bassoon might not sound that bad:) Warm regards /x/ paul
