“The Tiger that Ate”

A tiger was selfish,
He’d hit and he’d punch,
He always ate fish,
And he never missed lunch.

He ate up buildings and bridges and trees
He ate up a car and a truck,
He swallowed flies and things like bees,
and he always lay down in the muck.

He went to a farm,
He ate up a cow,
He swallowed a pig,
And a cat said Yow!

He went to a restaurant,
He bit up the cook,
He ate up the waitress,
And ripped up a cookbook

He went to a pet store,
He ate a toy steak,
And after it all,
He had a tummy ache.
