Two Cold Penguins

I met two penguins when I walked down the road
One was called Jim and the other known as Bode
There was something different about these two
They seamed a different colour, a very light blue
They were suffering from the cold. But they’re penguins you say
For these to penguins had lost there way
They had traveled all the way from the South Pole
And this being the north was way too cold
So I said to my two dear penguin friends
Why not come in here until winter ends
Now Jim and Bode, as he likes to be known
Couldn’t refuse and sat down where they were shown
Now, my house was very petite
So, it was hard to find room for everyone to sleep
But I solved that problem by sleeping out side
And to my dismay I found out they’d lied
They were not from the south but from quite near
And were homeless and needed to stay here
So upon hearing this news I marched right in
And told them to go and to lie is to sin
They marched rite out. Didn’t say a word
And of those two penguins I never herd
Another single sentence out of the mouth
Of the two cold penguins NOT from the south
