and now... the moment you were waiting for.... THE ELEGY OF LOLO
(For context- Lolo is the character our spanish book uses whenever it wants to give an example of someone doing something stupid)
Roses are red
I’m sorry to say
Our dear friend Lolo
Has now passed away
.
He’s no longer here
He drowned in the lake
While fetching his dog
Who jumped in by mistake
.
It seems he forgot
That his dog could swim
But he never learned
So his fate was grim
.
He begged to be saved
Tried to shout and yelp
Since he was so stupid
No one came to help
.
And that’s why we’re here
On this tragic day
To remember dear Lolo
Who now passed away
.
Lolo had good traits
He knew right from wrong
And most of the lyrics
To the ABC song
.
He was a nice fellow
Though not very bright
(Words with more than 2 syllables
Gave him quite a fright)
.
He was the sort of guy
Who’d pull doors that say push
His IQ was twelve
His brain was complete mush
.
He’d paint roses red
And blueberries blue
Lolo, oh Lolo
We truly miss you.
