The Hungry Jellyfish Who Ate Too Much Jelly

There was once a hungry jellyfish who gobbled so much jelly that he started to wobble too. His tentacles, his eyebrows, his arms and legs as well - the jellyfish wobbled so much, he shook prawn and shrimp, the mussels and every cockleshell. He wobbled so much that he made the waves shake - they shook so much that it made the whole sea quake. The hungry jellyfish ate some more ... and even the starfish shook on the sea shore. The hungry jellyfish shook a boat ... and soon even submarines were jelly afloat. The jellyfish wobbling made all the sailors sick - he even made the whales shake - a wobbling Moby Dick ! The hungry jellyfish had a jelly belly that rumbled so much it sounded like jelly - ish thunder. The fish in the sea wobbled, too ... and bobbed up and down so much that even the sharks couldn't catch them. The seaweed wobbled, the clams as well, the oysters almost wobbled right out of their shell. The mussels clattered and wobbled about ... they wobbled so much they jumped right out of the fishing net. All because of the jelly, I bet. There was no match for the hungry jellyfish, and though fishermen knew the jellyfish would be a tasty, jelly catch - the jellyfish wobbled away and seaweed was all they were able to snatch. The hungry jellyfish wobbled about - when he called out to the mermaid - only a jelly - ish shout came tumbling out. The hungry jellyfish didn't much care - if his jelly was yellow - or his belly was bare. And still his belly rumbled. The hungry jellyfish wobbled his way to Australia - where he started the kangeroos wobbling too - he even made the sealions wobble and the elephants in a zoo. The hungry jellyfish wobbled in the States - because of all the jelly that the hungry jellyfish ate.
