The Do the Flop guy liked to dance all the time
But he couldn't do it right no matter how hard he tried
He had two left feet from an accident at birth
And every time he danced, he'd always fall face first
Then one day, as he jumped in the air
Everybody turned and looked, and they pointed, and they stared
He had a bright idea, right before he hit the floor, he shouted
"Everybody do the Flop!"
A new dance craze was born!
