True story This morning I jumped on my horse And went for a ride, And some wild outlaws chased me And shot me in the side. So I crawled into a wildcats cave To find a place to hide But some pirates found me sleeping there And soon they had me tied To a pole and built a fire Under me--- I almost cried Till a mermaid came and cut me loose And begged to be my bride So I said id come back WednesdayBut I must admit I lied. Then I ran into a jungle swamp But I forgot my guide And I stepped into some quicksand And no matter how hard I tried I couldn’t get out, until I met A watersnake named ClydeWho pulled me to some cannibals Who planned to have me fried But an eagle came and swooped me up And through the air we flied But he dropped me in a boiling lake A thousand miles wide And you’ll never guess what I did then--- I DIED . Shel Silverstein
About This Quote

I died and went to heaven and the devil was standing at the gate and he asked if I had a ticket and I said no and he said you can’t come in without one, but then he didn’t let me in because he is mean, so then I died again and went to hell and I told the devil that I didn’t have a ticket and he said you can’t go in either because you are mean , so then I went back to heaven and I told God that I didn’t have a ticket and he said you can’t go in at all because there is no heaven any more because you are mean, so then we were both sad, but then God decided to make up for all of that by making me a dog.So now I live in a house with my family who loves me very much.
