"One fine day in the middle of the night" ...?

Question

One fine day in the middle of the night,

Two dead boys got up to fight, 

Back to back they faced each other,

Drew their swords and shot each other,


One was blind and the other couldn't, see

So they chose a dummy for a referee.

A blind man went to see fair play,

A dumb man went to shout "hooray!"


A paralysed donkey passing by,

Kicked the blind man in the eye,

Knocked him through a nine inch wall,

Into a dry ditch and drowned them all,


A deaf policeman heard the noise,

And came to arrest the two dead boys,

If you don't believe this story’s true,

Ask the blind man he saw it too!



Totoro thinks there may be something in that for all of us ... can you see it ...?

I've been told a different version.

Early in the morning
And in the middle of the night
Two dead boys got up to fight
They drew their swords and shot each other
The deaf policeman heard the noise
And came and killed the two dead boys.

Ah the literature of a decaying empire.  Everyone was mad on hats made of beaver pelt and made 7% solutions, then wrote stories for their children thinking they were quite sane.

It was ALL drug-induced.

Like it should have all been set to lava lamps and black lights.
