A maroon baboon
Marooned on the moon
Wistfully wished
For a moon balloon.

“I’m marooned on the moon
Too soon too soon,”
Crooned the maroon baboon
On a maroon bassoon.

“If only I had a moon balloon
I’d sail away on the wind of a tune
I’d sail away from now until noon
I’d sail away from the dusty old moon.”
