No Goat with Nuts

The he-goat went to strip bast, and the she-goat to pick nuts. The he-goat came with bast — but no she-goat with nuts. No she-goat with nuts, no she-goat with roasted nuts! — Well then, she-goat! I'll send the wolf on you. The wolf won't go chase the goat. No she-goat with nuts, no she-goat with roasted nuts! — Well then, wolf! I'll send the bear on you. The bear won't go maul the wolf, the wolf won't go chase the goat. No she-goat with nuts, no she-goat with roasted nuts! — Well then, bear! I'll send people on you. People won't go shoot the bear, the bear won't go maul the wolf, the wolf won't go chase the goat. No she-goat with nuts, no she-goat with roasted nuts! — Well then, people! I'll send clubs on you. Clubs won't go beat the people, people won't go shoot the bear, the bear won't go maul the wolf, the wolf won't go chase the goat. No she-goat with nuts, no she-goat with roasted nuts! — Well then, clubs! I'll send the axe on you. The axe won't go chop the clubs, clubs won't go beat the people, people won't go shoot the bear, the bear won't go maul the wolf, the wolf won't go chase the goat. No she-goat with nuts, no she-goat with roasted nuts! — Well then, axe! I'll send the stone on you. The stone won't go blunt the axe, the axe won't go chop the clubs, clubs won't go beat the people, people won't go shoot the bear, the bear won't go maul the wolf, the wolf won't go chase the goat. No she-goat with nuts, no she-goat with roasted nuts! — Well then, stone! I'll send the fire on you. Fire won't go scorch the stone, the stone won't go blunt the axe, the axe won't go chop the clubs, clubs won't go beat the people, people won't go shoot the bear, the bear won't go maul the wolf, the wolf won't go chase the goat. No she-goat with nuts, no she-goat with roasted nuts! — Well then, fire! I'll send the water on you. Water won't go douse the fire, fire won't go scorch the stone, the stone won't go blunt the axe, the axe won't go chop the clubs, clubs won't go beat the people, people won't go shoot the bear, the bear won't go maul the wolf, the wolf won't go chase the goat. No she-goat with nuts, no she-goat with roasted nuts! — Well then, water! I'll send the wind on you. The wind obeyed and went to drive the water, the water went to douse the fire, the fire went to scorch the stone, the stone went to blunt the axe, the axe went to chop the clubs, the clubs went to beat the people, the people went to shoot the bear, the bear went to maul the wolf, the wolf went to chase the goat. The she-goat came with nuts, the she-goat came with roasted nuts!
