Biggie Oof - It's a Long (Old) Joke

I heard a legend told
One that's very old
No one knows where it came from
As legends like these tend to go
Legends like these tend to go
Legends like these tend to go
There was a newspaper in this little town
People wrote into it from all around
It was famous all over the country and world
And here, dear friends, is where our story gets told
Our story gets told
Dear friends, our story gets told
There was this old man, he was down on his luck
The newspaper was having a contest and with happiness the man was struck
This contest was a contest to see who could make the best puns
And there was a substantial financial reward for whoever won
Substantial financial reward for whoever won
Financial reward for whoever won
My guy, he started to write, day in day out, even night
And he worked so hard, and sent in his card
It had ten puns on it
Ten puns on it
He wanted to win that contest
Now we reach the sad ending to our little tale
I'm sorry if you expected this to all go well
You see, the man expected one of his ten puns to win it
But unfortunately, no pun in ten did
No pun in ten did
No pun in ten did
I heard a legend told
One that's very old
No one knows where it came from
As legends like these tend to go
You've heard this legend now
Go forth and tell it proud
This isn't my joke, by the way
But I'm sure a song with it is allowed
Hope you laughed aloud
Aight, Biggie Oof is out now
