 Step Right Up, Don't Be Shy! by merionelle
--------
The Deserted Fairground all agree is quite a spooky place to go,
A strange assortment of attractions steeped in misery and woe.
But if you dare, then step right up if you fancy yourself a hawkeye,
And attempt to win a coconut from the infamous Coconut Shy.
The stand is run by Leeroy, a very friendly Quiggle.
He's a snappy dresser, a cheerful fellow with quite a charming giggle.
Only 100 neopoints to play, however, there may be a problem
Winning a coconut from him is far easier said than done.
Leeroy himself will, of course, insist his game is fair for all,
A simple and fun diversion of hitting coconuts with balls.
Alas, rumours are spreading fast about one small detail
That he stops you from winning coconuts by hammering them in with nails.
Each ball that's thrown, he provides you with some very helpful feedback,
Like "You Missed!" and of course "You'll have to do better than that!"
His laughter once was charming but soon after you begin,
You may find yourself now thinking that the joke is wearing thin.
20 throws are all you're allowed, but if you have good luck,
You may indeed knock down a coconut that hasn't been properly stuck
Leeroy isn't stupid; as a businessman, he's sly
Now you'll tell your friends to play a game at his Coconut Shy.
