There was a country boy named ‘Alex Horne’
He had a heart of gold and a brain full of corn
He made up tasks from sunrise to set
To test the cows and the chickens and their intellect
Till one day he went to the big city
Met a tall old man named Greg Davies
He said “I’m gonna put you on the TV
To settle the eyes there’s a guarantee
We’ll get 5 guys and gal’s to play your game
Who will all be of varying levels of fame.”
Alex shook his hand and the deal was done
Yee-Haw Greg said “We’re gonna have some fun”
So that’s the story, truth be told
How lil’ Alex Horne lil’ soul was sold
That’s the tale, told by me how Taskmaster came to be!
