Huffer and Cuffer
written by Jack Prelutsky


Huffer, a giant ungainly and gruff
encountered a giant called Cuffer
said Cuffer to Huffer, I'M ROUGH AND I'M TOUGH
said Huffer to Cufer, I'M TOUGHER.

they shouted such insults as BOOB and BUFFOON
and OVERBLOWN BLOWHARD and BLIMP
and BLUSTERING BLUBBER and BLOATED BALLOON
and SHATTERBRAIN, SHORTY and SHRIMP.

then Huffer and Cuffer exchanged mighty blows,
they basted and battered and belted,
they chopped to the neck and they bopped in the nose
and they pounded and pummelled and pelted.

they pinched and they punched and they smacked
and they whacked
and they rocked and they socked and they smashed,
and they rapped and they slapped and they
throttled and thwacked
and they thumped and they bumped and they bashed.

they cudgelled each other on top of the head
with swipes of the awfulest sort,
and now they are no longer giants, instead
they both are exceedingly short.
