I gave lots of money to Children in Deen
(I didn't want people to think I was mean)
They used it to build an orphanage for kids,
The contracts going to the highest bids
But the materials those companies used were sub-par
Hence them falling to bits, spilling oil everywhar.
If only they'd used better quality controls
And hadn't got distracted by playing bowls.
But they made the best of a bad situation,
Until they could smile with modest elation
They sold their story to some local rag
Whose sales were already starting to flag.
Nobody read it and nobody cared.
But it turned out OK, 'cos the shed got repaired!
It could once more be useful for storing the mower,
Some shelves had moved higher and some had moved lower
There was even room left for the spade and the hoe
Quite a happy ending, as tool-based stories go.
