Ladies and gentlemen, hoboes and tramps,
Cross-eyed mosquitoes and bow-legged ants,
I come before you to stand behind you,
To tell you something I know nothing about.
Next Thursday, which is Good Friday,
There will be a Mother's Day meeting for fathers only;
Admission is free, so pay at the door,
Pull up a seat and sit on the floor.

One fine day in the middle of the night,
Two dead brothers got up to fight,
Back to back they faced each other,
Drew their swords and shot each other,

One was blind and the other couldn't, see
So they chose a dummy for a referee.
A blind man went to see fair play,
A dumb man went to shout "hooray!"

A paralysed donkey passing by,
Kicked the blind man in the eye,
Knocked him through a nine inch wall,
Into a dry ditch and drowned them all,

A deaf policeman heard the noise,
And came to arrest the two dead boys,
If you don't believe this story’s true,
Ask the blind man he saw it too!

I've always loved that poem, although the version I've heard was a bit reworded. Either way, it's the same concept. I love paradoxes.

Its in the Haunting in Connecticut?

And yeah the version I always heard was,

One fine morning in the middle of the night
in a two story house on a vacant lot
two dead brothers got up to fight
back to back they faced eachother
drew their swords and shot eachother
deaf policeman heard the noise
came and killed the two dead boys
If you don't believe me
Ask the blind man he saw it too!
