Coming back, the boy tripped over

The father went to the aid of
his son, ran into a barbed wire

The cow was stung by the bees,
ran through the gate and was kill

The wife rushed out, knocked

found the army with one that's
both efficient and convenient.

Now he's back with one that
looks as good or better; it has
taken nine of ten games.
