PRIMITIVE MAN

A man had lived in a primitive land without a friend
Living with only himself upon who he could depend
Until an explorer found him he’d spent his whole life
But now he had come to civilization looking for a wife
This was a strange world and of his home he yearned
He knew very little and there was a lot to be learned
With the help of the explorer his education now began
He'd never seen a train or the tracks on which they ran
He decided to explore his new surroundings one-day
And he found he was deeply fascinated by the railway
He heard a whistle while standing on the train tracks
Not knowing what it was he thought it was safe to relax
But he was hit by a train as he foolishly stood his ground
Suffering a few broken bones and nothing more profound
He spent just a few weeks recovering in a hospital bed
Being tended by pretty nurses and being regularly fed
Making a full recovery he is discharge from the hospital
And he was then put up at the home of his explorer pal
One day he hears something that makes his hairs bristle
While he’s stood in the kitchen he hears the kettle whistle
He grabbed a broomstick so he could attack the kettle
And proceeded to batter and bash it into a lump of metal
His friend hearing the commotion rushed into the room
He looked down and saw what he’d done with the broom
"Why did you ruin my kettle? I don’t understand at all”
He replied "You’ve got to kill them when they're small."
