    One day Kilroy's father went out to the fair with a pony and he swopped his pony for a mule.

    One day Kilroy's father went out to the fair with a pony and he swapped his pony for a mule. When he arrived home his son came out singing:-
    Welcome home Dada,
    Or did you fight a duel
    Or how did the pony turn into a mule?
