Bonus mental episode. Always the poet (which is actually true), I have come up with something that is best hummed along the chorus of Nik Kershaw’s The Riddle.

The Raccoons are so awful,
Are a pain to see play;
Make you cry, make you scream,
Make you run, run away;
Issue walks, issue balks,
Strike out four times a day;
And it hurts if you still
Recall their Good Old Days,
Which are lo-ong, lo-ong gone…


And for the grand finale:

The Raccoons are so awful,
Are a pain to see play;
Make you cry, make you scream,
Make you run, run away;
Issue walks, issue balks,
Strike out four times a day;
And it hurts if you still
Recall their Good Old Days,
Which are never, never coming back,
Which are never, never coming back…
