When he felt horses were a passe
bought a pair of zebra from the zoo
got them hitched to his carriage
believe it or not it's true!
Soon he got a trainer on hire
to train them to pull his car
the news soon got into the press
he had put the zebras on harness!
The man given easily to caprice
never once felt the slightest remorse
for ruining those dumb animal's peace
the zebra could not be a striped horse!
One of the pair died shortly
the other was left to pull his car
he would be seen riding merrily
dressed in his royal attire!
To him a sport he was never ashamed
used to boast of his crudely callous fun
a zebra like a horse though can't be tamed
with his carriage had to make a fast run!
