Lily Larouche Rap!!!

One of my favorite books is The Order of Oddfish, and I was bored and wrote a rap about a character from it. James Kennedy, this one's for you!

Lily Larouche Rap

Lily Larouche was a famous movie star

She vacationed in Tahiti or on the Cote d'Ivoire

She was the tabloids' favorite, caused a rumor a week

But Miss Larouche's style was always quite unique.

She got busted twice for reckless hot air ballooning

But she didn't mind; no, she found it quite amusing

The President Dwight Eisenhower loved her from afar

One quiet Christmas Eve, he sent his eyebrows in a jar!

Then suddenly the great Larouche was gone, right off the map

This vanishing was big, it left the tabloids in a flap

They swore, "We won't forget her!" but as the years wore on

Detectives and search parties had naught to build upon

Her memory just faded from everybody's mind

Until, forty years later, Lily awoke to find

She was in her Ruby Palace (her giant crimson home)

The sobs of a small baby said she wasn't alone

She followed to the laundry room where she was shocked to see

A baby in her washer, pinned to the cloth a plea:

Please take care of Jo, but beware: DANGEROUS baby!

Lily thought the unknown note-writer to be crazy

For Jo seemed just as dangerous as a glass of milk

But Lily, she got older, lost her grip, wore gowns of silk

That she used to use in movies she filmed in days of glory

And little Jo grew older - well, that's another story!

(I don't know much about rap, so I don't know how good this is, sorry.) I think I'll try to make a rap for every major character in The Order of Oddfish. I may also post a recording of myself doing this one. Be on the lookout!
