Harry the horse is a beautiful animal. He is jet black, and very shiny. He has a white star on his nose, and a beautiful flowing mane and tail. Everyone who sees Harry, when he was out on his rides, turns in admiration. Old ladies rush out with carrots for him. Children stroke his nose, or if one of their parents pick them up, rub his mane for him. Harry likes that! His owner is called Gus, and Gus is very proud of Harry. The only thing that gets Gus down is Harry's grey socks. Harry has three grey socks, and one white one.
"Why can't you keep all your socks clean Harry"? Gus would ask, and he would set about trying to wash Harry's grey socks, but they always seemed to dry a dirty colour. "How can they have got dirty again before they've even had a chance to dry?" asked Gus. He often got quite upset about it.
One day he decided that he would wash Harry's socks, yet again, but that this time he wouldn't let Harry out of his stable. This way, he thought, Harry will have no way of getting his socks dirty again. Before he washed Harry, Gus cleaned Harry's stable so it was spotless. No dust or dirt anywhere. Then, he called Harry in, and began work using a bucket of nice warm water, and some special shampoo for horses. He scrubbed very gently, and then lathered-in the shampoo. He then rinsed Harry's socks carefully, and rubbed off the water with a nice big soft towel.
"I will be back in ten minutes when they should be dry and white," said Gus.
Harry hoped so. He didn't like having three grey socks either, especially as it made Gus so unhappy.
Harry munched his hay, and kept glancing down at his socks. He felt sure they were turning grey as they dried. "Oh dear," he neighed, "What will Gus say? He'll think it's all my fault."
Gus returned, as promised. "No! No! No!" he shouted. " Harry, what have you done"?
Harry shook his head. Gus scratched his. He still couldn't see any dirt anywhere and just didn't know how Harry had got his socks dirty again.
"I'm not letting you out until I've got to the bottom of this," Gus growled, and off he went, leaving Harry with one white sock, and three grey ones. Harry was very sad. He wanted to go out and gallop in his field, and to eat some grass.

To Bombay a travelling circus came
They brought an intelligent elephant
and Nellie was her name
One dark night she slipped her iron chain,
and off she ran to Hindustan
and was never seen again
oooooooooooooooooo...
[Chorus:]
Nellie the elephant packed her trunk
and said goodbye to the circus
off she rode with a trumpety trump
trump trump trump
Nellie the elephant packed her trunk
and trundled off to the jungle
off she rode with a trumpety trump
trump trump trump
Night by night she danced to the circus band
When Nellie was leading the big parade
she looked so proud and grand
No more tricks for Nellie to perform
They taught her how to take a bow
and she took the crowd by storm
oooooooooooooooooo...
[Chorus x2]
The head of the heard was calling far far away
they met one night in silver light
on the road to Mandalay
oooooooooooooooooo...
[Chorus x2]

Bleach might have worked.
"Everyone who sees Harry, when he was out on his rides," tense conflict.
