Just like jungle boy Tarzan
Animals brought up the child Lardzan
Tarzan’s adopted ape parents were so big
Lardzan’s adopted parents were the humble pigs
Just like the jungle boy
Lardzan had his Jane
But his was a short lived joy
About hygiene Jane was a pain
Tell me why oh why
Won’t you come and live in my sty
The truth to you I will tell
I Just can’t stand the smell
Why oh why do you have to moan
Why do you run down my ancestral home
Smell this a family heirloom
At that she turned and left the room
The smell got worse as the weather got hotter
But this didn’t deter Lardzan Trotter
He wooed Jane with flowers and wine
She just said man-ure a swine
Off Lardzan and Jane’s romance
Which is a loving shame
Jane never gave Lardzan a chance
Snout from it never came
Poor old Lardzan was down on his luck
Jane went off to live in the city
All Lardzan had was muck
So he didn’t smell too pretty
It been a year since Lardzan lost Jane
Now he doesn’t give a fig
He lives a life oh so plain
Happy as the proverbial pig
