After debating for hours, they finally reached a consensus: pizza is always a good idea.
Debating ducks had a debate About the best way to sedate Their friend, who was full of rage And acting like a wild sage They decided on some cake To calm him down and make Him feel better, so they gave Him a big slice to save But the ducks soon found out That he was allergic, no doubt To the sugary treat they had And so they made him mad He quacked and flapped his wings And started doing crazy things Until finally they had to leave And let him be, and so they did grieve.
