FINKY STEET
I had a friend across the street, we always called him "Finky Steet",
Because his steet would fink beyond belief.
Oftentimes we'd try to play, and did alright till the heat of the day
When them finking steet would drive us all to grief.
I remember the time we came upon a herd of skunks in Finky's lawn
Who'd raised their tails to spray us with that spew!
But Finky really got upset. He got as mad as he could get,
An' he sat down and pulled off his right shoe.
The mama skunk swooned an' fell and the others dropped them threatening tails
An' headed fer th' drain pipe 'neath th' street.
That's when we first began to see what a wonderful weapon he could be
If he just took th' shoes from off them feet.
Whenever Finky went to school he followed his own "Golden Rule"
An' kept them finking steet in plastic bags.
But some of th' school kids told their folks, an' Finky then became a joke
And the brunt of all th' townsfolk's rotten gags.
It got so bad we had to hide an' spend our playtime locked inside,
An' y'know we couldn't have no fun that way.
I bought a clothespin for my nose, an' Finky, he would wrap his toes
Up good an' tight so we could romp an' play.
But th' townsfolk ribbed him more an' more till it began to make him sore,
An' things were quickly coming to a head.
So we dreamed up a clever plan to help him get the upper hand
An' teach them folks a lesson they would dread.
We found a wagon sittin' round, an' drug it down to the end of town
And sat ol' finky backwards on the seat.
We hung his feet down off the back, an' I think I heard my clothespin crack
The instant he unsheathed them finking steet.
I dragged him slowly down the street while he kept swinging finky steet
Back and forth in the gentle breeze that blew.
Like shimmering waves of summer heat the stink rose up from off them feet
And slowly swept through buildings old and new.
I had to take another pin, and close my nose up tighter then.
'Cause even I was feeling kind of faint.
Flowers and bushes wilted down as screamin' people left that town
Reaching speeds that even airplanes can't.
In about an hour the deed was done, and that whole town was on the run
And nary a person bothered lookin' back.
They learned their lesson, every one, and they found out it warn't no fun
To joke about somebody's handicap.
Now me and Finky live alone since all them nasty folks are gone
And he keeps plastic bags upon his feet.
But keep in mind, if any fool should ever try to ridicule
They'll find out why we call him Finky Steet.
