JABBA BOY.
Had it in a pack
Sat on a rack
Sorted it with a knack
Chewed it like a Buck
With a sweet to suck.
Did nothing all day
Save chew all the way
Had no care anyway
Few needs anyway
Save for jabba everyday.
Years down the line
No lass he’d won
Had no wife nor coin
Teeth were all gone
His youth was slain.
Soon he was no more
No one was sore
Save the jabba vendor lost a precious customer
His mom shed a tear.
Not for the son she’d lost
But the time he’d lost
While all others
Spent the day lost
Building castles on a loft.
