Fred is a very lazy frog
Who lolls all day upon a log.
He always manages to shirk
Doing a single stroke of work.
His poor old mother calls in vain
"Come in and help!" he does not bother
To move two inches, much preferring
To be extremely hard-of-hearing.
He lies there in a silent heap.
And stays conveniently asleep.
If a lady frog hops past
You'd think he would get up at last
To bow, and help her on her way?
But no, I am ashamed to say
That when a lady frog comes by
He does not open up one eye!
