Come again officer
What’s that you say
I went through a speed trap
Ten mile back-away
It took you that long
To catch up with my car
You think I’m the worst maniac
But by far
Well sir let me tell you
And try to explain
A bee came and bit me
And I was in pain
It flew through the window
The window was shut
Bit on my leg
Then it bit on my butt
My foot hit the gas
I was off like a light
But that pesky bee
Kept on taking a bite
Next thing I know
In my mirror I see
A space ship behind
Coming right after me
Lights all a flashing
And wailing this noise
Well I wasn’t gonna be
One of their toys
And so I kept going
But they stayed on there
Shooting their red and blue
Ray guns I swear
I just had to swerve
To avoid being hit
And I must of scared them
They went in a bit
And so I pulled over
To see to my ass
And next thing I know
There’s a knock on the glass
That’s when you spoke to me
Gave me a fright
Where the hell were you
I needed you, right,
Those aliens could have
Just taken me off
Where is the law when
We need them, cough, cough,
But anyway officer
I’m not the one
It wasn’t me driving
It was him who has gone
He is the one with whom
You need to speak
He’s hiding inside me
If you want to peek
It's not even my car
So I can’t be to blame
And my doctors tell me
That I am insane
But if I am mad
What does that make of you
You can’t even see
That in me there are two
In fact there are more
But they aren’t here today
They stayed in the hospital
Or so they say
But the craziest one
Be the doctor by far
When he realises
I’ve stolen his car
So give me the ticket
If that’s what you must
Now that I’ve ranted and raved
Sworn and cussed
Just give me the ticket
I’ll be on my way
And finally officer
Have a nice day
Author notes
bet you wouldn't get a ticket, they might ask you to accompany them down to the station............
