I walked outside and heard a bang,
A toot, crash, slam! A shake, wham, clang!
A honk-honk! Vroom, vroom! Clink, bop, smash,
Wiggle-tiggle, slippey-slide, thump-thump, bash!
La-la, ho-ho, snap, whoosh, whir,
Chink-chink, tap-tap, whistle, hum, chur!
I heard a squeak, a squelch, a groan,
A slap, punch, boom-boom, shuffle-shuffle, moan!
Ding-dong, clang-clong, bash, whoop, zip,
A humph, oomph, sweep, swish, skid, and riiiip!
I walked outside and heard voop, zap, chor-chor,
I walked outside and heard some noise, then I walked back indoors.
