Rosie : Today our dear friend Chicken Soup, this very ordinary day, boiled up a pot of chicken soup, and swallowed it away. Alack, a-day, oh whoa, oy vey. He swallowed it away. Now listen to what I'm gonna say. A little bone, a bitty thing, no bigger than my pinky, he swallowed hot from out that pot, and quicker than a winky, he gulped that soup and let out a whoop, and fell down croaking on the stoop. And he sulked. Ugh. And he sagged. And he smothered. And he gagged. And he let out a scream! Aah! And he let out a moan. Ohh... And he cried, cause he died, from choking on the bone, on such an ordinary day like today.
