5. THE STORY OF THE MAN THAT WENT SHOOTING

This is the man that hunts the goat,

This is his hat and shirt and coat;

With swag bag, plane and tank and gun,

He's going out to have some fun.

"He burns before the Führer's eye

To do some deed of chivalry."

The goat sits snug 'mid mountain crags

And laughs the while the great man brags –

"Greek Goat! Come out or you'll be shot,

For I a heavy gun have got,

Hand over everything to me:

Meanwhile I'll rest 'neath yonder tree."

And while he slept like any top,

The little goat came hop, hop, hop –

Took guns and tanks and things and then

On his hind legs went off again.

The great man wakes and sees no trace

Of fear upon his victim's face.

The goat's now trying all he can

To butt the sleeping black shirt man:

He cries and screams and runs away,

The goat runs after him all day

And hears him call with frenzied shrieks: –

"Help! Führer! Help! The Greeks! The Greeks!"
