Stared at eyes as black and dark as Night, the

And he outdrew Freddy Pharkas when he

Shot Freddy's ear off, to prove who was the best.
Freddy Ear Wounded
Now our hero, Freddy Pharkas,
With his wounded pride and earless carcass,
Vowed to the heavens to give up gunnery.

With the lifelong dream that always beckoned:
Pestles, not pistols, and pharmacology.
