Why are Fire Engines Red?
They have four wheels and eight men; four plus eight is twelve.
Twelve inches make a ruler; a ruler is Queen Elizabeth.
Queen Elizabeth sails the seven seas; the seven seas have fish.
The fish have fins; the Finns hate the Russians.
The Russians are red; fire engines are always rushin'.
So they're red.
