A tree toad loved a she-toad
That lived up in a tree.
He was a two-toed tree toad.
While three-toed toad was she.
The he-toad tree toad
Tried to gain the she-toad’s friendly nod
For the two-toed tree toad
Loved the ground the three-toed tree toad trod,
The he-toad tree toad tried in vain
To gain

It makes me think of the Proverb that says, When
