IF YOU SHOULD MEET A CROCODILE by ANONYMOUS

Last Line: AND WHENE'ER YOU MEET A CROCODILE / HE'S READY FOR HIS DINNER
Subject(s): CROCODILES;

If you should meet a crocodile,
Don't take a stick and poke him;
Ignore the welcome in his smile,
Be careful not to stroke him.
For as he sleeps upon the Nile,
He thinner gets and thinner;
And whene'er you meet a crocodile
He's ready for his dinner.
