"The Rapids Tragedy"
Standing at rapids on a summer bliss
Zooming down the slides going in the pool
What is Bender wearing can’t believe this
The speedo so hideous oh so cruel
The speedo oh so very, very tight
He is dressed like no other at the park
All these little kids are in severe fright
He is scarier than a great white shark
He’s wearing such I’ve never seen before
No one can take their eyes off his speedo
Extremely impossible to ignore
He’s swimming as fast as a torpedo
Towels around him no more to display
What a crazy day in the month of May
