His Name Was Il Piantissimo
Once there was a man, who wore a Pianta suit of pink
And a muscle shirt that was filled with his sweaty stink
His mask would hide his grin, but not his pointy chin
And his name was Il Piantissimo
Once there was a man who sailed the open sea
Looking for a land to hold his races three
He was competitive all the time, as he'd run or swim or climb,
And his name was Il Piantissimo
Il Piantissimo was Delfino's pride
Cheers would fill the air with his every stride
A win was in his bag, as he scuttled to the flag
And with joy the natives cried!
Once there was a man who trained every day
He'd race almost anyone that was but five feet away
On a beach or in a tree, as athletic as can be
And his name was Il Piantissimo
Once there was a man whose ego was too great
His stupid whiny laugh could make anyone irate
He had a super jump, but not a water pump
And his name was Il Piantissimo
Il Piantissimo just didn't have a clue
Racing just isn't the only thing there is to do
He could have lent a helping hand, rather than running around the sand
But racing's all he knew!
Once there was a man who let the days go by
As Delfino's newest hero caught every native's eye
Now that he was not the best, he only was a pest,
But with higher self-esteem, he could follow another dream
So once more he set sail, continuing his tale,
And his name was Il Piantissimo
