I was trapped on an elevator

With ten strangers.

This was a job for

The Lone Ranger.

One girl started screaming.

Another girl cried and cried.

An old man with a cane shouted,

“Hey mister, zip up your fly.”

A businessman scowled.

A doctor said don’t fear.

A lawyer told the doctor

To stick it up his ear.

Things were getting hostile.

I was listening to alligators.

Then suddenly we moved once again

On the unreliable elevator.

Everyone departed within a minute or two.

I left the elevator playing on my kazoo.
