Title:
A work of Genie--ous
I went into a pub one day on the bar I placed a sack. And from it came a one foot man with a piano on his back. The landlord looked and was surprised and knew not what to say. He stood there frozen to the spot and watched the small man play. He said " Tell me where you got him and your bar slate I will scrub." So I produced my magical golden lamp and said " Give that a rub." A Genie appeared in a puff of smoke and said " Come to me dear. I'll grant one wish so be careful what you whisper in my ear." The wish was granted, the Genie gone and from the floor arose a fog. We heard a sound and made it out as the barking from a dog. I watched it all but soon lost count, dogs as far as the eye could see. Surrounded by a canine crowd from almost every pedigree. The barman said " That Genie's deaf what can I do with these hounds? My one wish has been wasted now I asked for a million POUNDS." " I know" I said " She's rather crap but it doesn't take a genius. To realise that I never asked for a twelve inch pianist."
