"GREEN EYES"
ONE NIGHT A GROUP OF GUYS FROM MY HIGH SCHOOL DECIDED TO GO OUT
TO FIND "GREEN EYES" FOR THEMSELVES. THEY DROVE OUT TO THE
BATTLEFIELD AND PARKED IN A CIRCLE IN A FIELD. AFTER WAITING FOR
AN HOUR OR SO, SUDDENLY A LARGE SHADOW FELL IN THE CIRCLE IN A
THAT THE CARS MADE. ALL THE GUYS TURNED ON THEIR HEADLIGHTS AND
NOTHING WAS THERE! NO ONE HAS EVER BEEN ABLE TO EXPLAIN WHAT WAS
THERE, BUT THEY ALL BELIEVE IT TO HAVE BEEN GREEN EYES.

"GREEN EYES"
WHEN I WAS STILL IN HIGH SCHOOL, A GUY TOLD ME ABOUT THE TIME
THAT HE AND A FEW OTHER GUYS WENT OUT TO THE BATTLEFIELD. THEY
DROVE DOWN A NARROW ROAD AND PARKED-THE ONLY WAY OUT WAS TO GO
FRONTWARDS OR BACKWARDS. THEY WAITED FOR A LONG TIME IN THE DARK
OF THE NIGHT. STEVE NOTICED 2 WHITE LIGHTS HIGH UP IN THE TREES
A LONG WAY AWAY, BUT PAID THEM NO ATTENTION. AFTER ABOUT
15 MINUTES HE NOTICED THAT THE LIGHTS HAD MOVED BOTH LOWER AND
AND CLOSER. HE SHOWED THEM TO THE OTHERS, AND THEY ALL WATCHED AS
THE LIGHTS CAME LOWER AND CLOSER. THEY WERE ALL SCARED TO DEATH,
SO THEY GOT OUT OF THERE AS FAST AS THEY COULD. THEY ALL SWORE
THAT IT WAS THE GREEN EYES, AND WOULD NEVER GO BACK OUT THERE
AT NIGHT.

BETTY BOTTER BOUGHT SOME BUTTER,
BUT, SHE SAID THE BUTTER'S BITTER;
IF I PUT IT IN MY BATTER
IT WILL MAKE MY BATTER BITTER;
BUT A BIT OF BETTER BUTTER
WILL MAKE MY BATTER BETTER.
SO SHE BOUGHT A BIT OF BUTTER
BETTER THAN HER BITTER BUTTER,
AND SHE PUT IT IN HER BATTER
AND THE BATTER WAS NOT BITTER.
SO 'TWAS BETTER BETTY BOTTER BOUGHT A BIT OF BETTER
BUTTER.
