Once there was an elephant Who tried to use the telephant No no! I mean an elephone who tried to use the telephone. (Dear me, I am not certain quite That even now I've got it right.)
Howe'er it was he got his trunk Entangled in the telephunk The more he tried to get it free The louder buzzed the telephee (I fear I'd better drop the song Of elephop and telephong.)
I learned this poem when I was about 7. Who knew it would be useful?
Once there was an elephant
Who tried to use the telephant
No no! I mean an elephone who tried to use the telephone.
(Dear me, I am not certain quite
That even now I've got it right.)
Howe'er it was he got his trunk
Entangled in the telephunk
The more he tried to get it free
The louder buzzed the telephee
(I fear I'd better drop the song
Of elephop and telephong.)
