Story:
There once was a man named Rig
And he had a rather unique gift
He could belch up slugs with ease
But others would scream "He's got a disease."
Sad and disheartened, Rig went on a trip
To find a witch, a witch named Scrip
"Hello," said he "Could you perhaps help?
I can create slugs with every belch.
But others at home, do not seem to care
So could you help, for a price that's fair?"
She cackled and clapped, a wicked grin on her face
"Of course, all I want is a nut and some lace!"
So Rig went and got
The things Scrip besought
And returned with 10 nuts, and a bucket of lace
"Now, my dear," she said with glee "Bow your head like you're saying grace."
He complied to her request
And was soaked in a potion, Scrip's very best
He carefully coughed, and lo and behold
Out popped a diamond, beset with gold!
"Oh dear," said he "that's not what I meant!"
"Too late dearie, now home you'll be sent!"
With a crack and a pop, Rig was back home
Left to be coughing up diamonds and gold
He grew very famous
There was much fuss
Over a man who could cough up such treasures of old!
(And deep in the forest, Scrip said to herself,
"What did I tell you? I'll always help you.....my son."
DUN DUN DUUUUUUUUN)
