Episode Synopsis
An animal on the street is must curiousBecause usually you find them furiousCars honking at them from both waysDoesn't help to alleviate delaysEquine was the creature that I sawFour legs stood on tarmac floorGiving no sign of trying to moveHappily painted in paved road groovesI'd been stood a while at the sceneJust wondering what it could meanKey to this scene is that I waitedLet the scene progress as it was fatedMaking no attempt to startle the beastNot tempted to approach, and become feastObviously this irritated those at the wheelPolitely yelling if I was realQuite clear, I pointed at the dangerRealising I had to help the strangerSlowly, carefully, I explained clearThat stripes on the road gave me fearUnderstanding nothing, he started to yellVery loudly that I could go to hellWalking out his car door to shoutX-ing the road to engage in the bout"You an idiot, you fool" (He shouted to chafe)Zebra crossings are perfectly safe
