Schadenfreude was always near to Stanley
It was just so desultory and banal
But he could never forget Ollie

That morning, Laurel was shocked by the comedy
But still he remembered the protocol
Schadenfreude was always near to Stanley

Later, Laurel was spooked to a degree
Their act was repetitive, all in all
But he could never forget Ollie

He distracted Stan with physicality
Said it was time to work in a pratfall
Schadenfreude was always near to Stanley

Oliver took a leap most gracefully
Hardy flew high like a toxic theory
But Stan could never forgive Ollie

Laurel nosedived- O vengeful gravity
Stan’s mind echoed dangerously eerie
Schadenfreude was always near to Stanley
For he could never forgive Ollie
