Larry the Lama

My uncle has this lama named Larry.

He's big, mean, scary and very hairy.

Up in a tree, drop my knife.

Saw where it landed,

Didn't like it, but had to get it.

Down the tree I go and over the fence

Grab my knife, but there's a problem.

The fence I came down, but not the way I'm able to get out.

Across the pen is a gate, looks like a great escape.

Look to my right there he is, the big, black, mean and scary and yes very hairy

Larry.

Look at the gate, start to run, look to my right and here he comes.

Running as fast as I can, can hear him right behind.

Look at the gate, it's getting closer, then I think, is it locked?

Keep on running, as fast as I can, run into it, but I didn't go through it.
