/// In his clothing, Knut has bizarre taste.
On his knees metal shin guards are placed.
Right leg’s red, left leg’s green;
a face tops his canteen,
and two coat hooks hang down from his waist.
/// Sword and crossbow are tools for a fight,
(though his camouflage isn’t quite right).
But those hooks. What is that?
Knut takes tips from the bat
and he hangs upside-down through the night.
/// Why Knut sleeps like a bat, he’ll explain.
His blood flows down and sharpens his brain.
And he’s harder to see,
hanging high in a tree,
so he’s less likely captured and slain.
/// All the guys in his gym crudely mock
him for padding his shorts with a sock.
Then, when Cedric first saw
his wife’s new push-up bra,
he invented the underwire jock.
