                “Whatever happened, then, to Wally the Werk?”

                For we all thought he was a bit of a berk.

                  He wasted his time all day in our class.

                  He caused all our teachers a lot of harrass.

                 

                He was boring and stupid - well, a bit of a prat –

                He never would wash and his hair was a mat.

                  I never knew Wally to polish his shoes.

                  When other folk worked, he’d be taking a snooze.

                 

                So, what did become, then, of Wally the Werk?

                When I tell you the truth, you really will smirk.

                  For Wally’s done well – he’s a millionaire!

                  So if you think you’re a wally, please don’t despair.
