Five special men ...

Let me tell you about the five special men
Who have five special hobbies

Man one is a snake catcher for 33 years

Man two speaks 19 languages
Including Braille

Man three has memorised Rimley's special chess games
All of them

Man four has a lab on the hills
From which he comes tumbling down
Every time he discovers something like an alternative
To plutonium
Preferably a thermoplastic compound

Man five gets a hefty commission
From the oil mafia
Which he diverts to a school for special children

These are the five special men
I wanted to tell you about

With five special hobbies

Every day I aspire to have some such hobby
As my forefinger is poised to enter my nose
For the nth time in the day
