The Two Dead Boys

One bright day in the middle of the night,

Two dead boys got up to fight!

Back-to-back they faced each other,

Drew their swords, and shot each other!

A deaf policeman heard the noise,

Came and killed those two dead boys!

If you don't believe this lie is true,

Ask the blind man, because he saw it too.

What is the difference between nursery rhyme and poem?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Nursery rhymes are short traditional songs or poems for young children, often with simple melodies and repetitive patterns. Poems, on the other hand, refer to any form of literary composition that conveys emotion or ideas through carefully chosen words and structured language, and are not necessarily geared towards children.

What does this come from who knows the man in the mountain knows that's who knows?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

This question comes from a 45lp record that I have recently been trying to find on ebay. The story is about a boy who awakes each morning and sings "hello, hello, hello, hello, & how, are you?" Each phrase is answered by his echo. Then one day the echo does not return & he searches in vain to find it until finally he asks the "wise owl" who responds, " The old man in the mountain knows, that's whooo". The boy then proceeds to visit the old man, who, with much audible exertion, frees it from where it was stuck somewhere in the mountain & we hear an explosion of all the trapped, "hello, hello, hello....'s" The story ends w/ the boy again singing his happy song to his echo. I remember being about 4 or 5 years old & listening to this record over & over (it was my first). I have recently longed to be able to hear it again (although I, @ 54yrs old, practically know it by heart to this day. Submitted by Bob Yingling ANSWER: I CANT BELIEVE YOU REMEMBER THIS TOO!! ITS CALLED "SPARKY'S MAGIC ECHO" AND IT'S ON YOUTUBE!! ENJOY.

Install aeration and filtration systems for water circulation and maintenance.
