There was a young man called Paul/ Whose tales were often exceedingly tall/ He said prepare for the worst/ The dams are going to burst/ And we won't have a liferaft not at all/ ************************************** There was a young man called Paul/ Who thought himself really on the ball/ But in Y2 K he was extreme/ Quite obviously off the beam/ But he really does have such a gall/ *************************************** There was a young man called Paul/ Whose writings often did quite appal/ He made his fellow correspondent/ Often feel quite despondent/ For in argument he tended to maul/ **************************************** There was a young man called Paul/ Who through the internet often did trawl/ He found bad news galore/ That he made himself sore/ Then he drove everyone else up the wall/ ***************************************** There was a young man called Paul Who bugged out of the race only last fall/ He hid himself away/ Never came out by day/ Kept himself shut up in the cupboard near the hall/ ************************************************ There was a young man called Paul/ Who antics everyone here used to enthral/ Until one day it is said/ He just stayed in his bed/ And stared all the day at the wall/ ********************************************* There was a young man called Paul/ Who often got into a brawl/ He gave everyone a clout/ His patience always ran out/ Mercy finally came when he said "goodbye one and all" **************************************************
