Too Thin Tim

With this text we will retell
The story of Thin Tim and what befell

Tim o'Kim was much too thin
The doctors told him so
They wanted him to eat more
So bigger he would grow

A proper doctor named Roger
Had got the perfect cure
We'll put him on some medicine
And that will work for sure

Magical medical marvels were 
Performed on behalf of poor Tim
And after the doctors had finished
You wouldn't recognize him!

His feet had had grown by 4 sizes
He stomach and arms had ballooned
He face was fat and chubby
And everybody swooned

Oh proper doctor Roger
Oh look at him look at him now!
Instead of being super trim
It seems like he ate a whole cow!

Dear doctor don't dither rather gather
Please tell me that this can be fixed
I know you've got pills you've got magical skills
There must surely be a drug you can mix?

Confusted consternated Roger
Looked at Timmy and knew what to do
He took a sharp pin from his bag and he said
"Once I poke him he will go k'blew!"

"No no!" said Tim's mother alarmed
We really want him unharmed
So please please put away your pin
We are not going in that direction

The tiny spiny pin
Was put back in the bag once again
And instead Roger drew out to shiny red pills
"These pills will solve all of your ills"

So Tim took them and what do you know?
Tim actually started to grow
He became twice his size
Oh the look on his grandmother's eyes

Poor Timmy now looked like a whale
His fate was just calamitous!
From the back and the front and the side
He looked like a giant walrus

The doting daring dad
Had had all that he figured he could have
"Put him back! Put him back! I don't mind if he's thin!"
"I just want my too thin Timmy back to me again!"

The doc wheeled out a machine
With a deep green steaming gleam
Timmy went through on one end
And nobody dared to pretend


That when too thin Timmy finally came out
Everyone there gave out a big shout
"You're so thin you're so thin! Oh how happy I'll have been"
To know that I've got back my actual Tim
