&quot;One bright day in the middle of the night<br /> Two dead boys* got up to fight [*or men]<br /> Back to back they faced each other<br /> Drew their swords and shot each other<br /> <br /> One was blind and the other couldn&#039;t see<br /> So they chose a dummy for a referee.<br /> A blind man went to see fair play<br /> A dumb man went to shout &quot;hooray!&quot;<br /> [or: And two lame men came to carry them away]<br /> <br /> A paralysed donkey passing by<br /> Kicked the blind man in the eye<br /> Knocked him through a nine inch wall<br /> Into a dry ditch and drowned them all<br /> <br /> A deaf policeman heard the noise<br /> And came to arrest the two dead boys<br /> If you don&#039;t believe this story&rsquo;s true,<br /> Ask the blind man he saw it too! &quot;-i have no idea who actually wrote this poem but it was quoted on the movie &quot;Haunting In Conneticut.&quot;
