  Late one night, as we were sleeping in our bed The fire alarm sounded, a sound of great dread I leaped out of my bed to see what was the fuss To see that my fish tank somehow had bust
 
  The under-tank compressor had somehow caught flame The heat broke the glass, and down the water came The fire was put out when the water came down And on the tile kitchen floor, the fish swam around.
 
  Without a tank I could keep them no more So I donated them all to the local fish store So, That's what Happened!  I did manage to get some insurance coverage for the damage.  We had really needed new carpet anyway!
