There Was a Young Man Named Dunn

There was a young man named Dunn
Who decided to fly to the sun.

A dog who had no tail
Made the poor vicar turn pale.
As the day turned dark
He would howl and bark

Who composed poems all of 1 line.
When drunk on strong beer

Who wept as he sang his swansong.
They took off their hats
And whacked him with bats.
And so ended that swansong of Long!
