The Generals Annotated

Said General Clay to General Gore
"Oh, must we fight this silly war?
To kill and die is such a bore"
"I quite agree," said General Gore

Said General Gore to General Clay
"We could go to the beach today
And have some ice cream on the way
"A grand idea," said General Clay

Said General Clay to General Gore
"We'll build sand castles on the shore"
Said General Gore, "We'll splash and play"
"Let's leave right now," said General Clay

Said General Gore to General Clay
"But what if the sea's closed today?
And what if the sand's been blown away?"
"A dreadful thought," said General Clay

Said General Gore to General Clay
"I've always feared the ocean spray
And we may drown." "It's true. We may
It chills my blood," said General Clay

Said General Clay to General Gore
"My bathing suit is slightly tore
We'd better go on with our war"
"I quite agree," said General Gore

Then General Clay charged General Gore
As bullets flew and cannons roared
And now, alas! There is no more
Of General Clay or General Gore
