I knew a man named Murray

Who was always in a hurry

He'd say to everyone 

'Have no time, gotta run'

And off someplace he would scurry

I knew a man named Joe

Who did everything very slow

At 8:00 each day he'd start to pee

Wouldn't end till 8:23

Why it took him so long I don't know

Both men were seeing a gal, Mary Lou

Who wasn't sure what to do 

Joe'd be coming while Murray was going

Was the cause of many a fit she'd be throwing 

Think this situation sounds confusing, don't you?

Was something Mary Lou needed resolved 

She brought together both men involved

Said 'Murray, you're too fast, you must be outcast

Joe, you're so slow, but I like it to last

That's what I've decided. Problem solved!'
