I started out on roller skates
But landed on my rear
Everyone was laughing
And shouting "Hear, Hear!"

I changed over to a bicycle
One with many gears
I fell off more than I was on
And ended up in tears

So then I tried some mountain climbing
The tallest I could find
My rope kept getting twisted
Which was rather a bind

I thought I'd try some badminton
What was the harm in that?
But when I tried to swipe the shuttle
I lost my blinkin' bat

**(OK I know it's a raquet - I'm using poetic licence )**

I think I'll stick with DVDs
It's better than the rest
I can prance when I want
And feel full of zest!
