Ode to The Timeless Child

Now after nearly sixty years of canon development
You'd think something cohesive would be heaven-sent
To make sense of all past mistakes and irritating goofs
But we're all beguiled
By the Timeless Child
It makes us all hit the roofs!


Oh, the Timeless Child, the Timeless Child
All the backstory trashed by the Timeless Child
It's the retcon that drives all fandom wild
Because Doctor Who was ruined by the Timeless Child

When Nation wrote "Genesis", the fans were all outraged!
When Holmes wrote "Deadly Assassin", fans were all enraged!
And "The War Games" contradicted all previous continuity
And when Chibnall trialed
The Timeless Child
There was no tolerance to see!


Oh, the Timeless Child, the Timeless Child
Oh, everything is better before the Timeless Child
Though compared the Hybrid arc it's rather mild
No one wants to canonize the Timeless Child!
 
As Mister Steven Moffat said, "Rule 1: The Doctor Lies!"
And just like Ian Levine said, "Feed me all the pies!"
But try and use your heads and try not to be dense

Hartnell was exiled
As he's the Timeless Child
And now it all makes sense!

Oh, the Timeless Child, the Timeless Child
It's a plot-twist that is complete reviled
So much continuity has been defiled
Because of the horrible truth of the Timeless Child!


Oh, the Timeless Child, the Timeless Child
We beg RTD to retcon the Timeless Child
Like Morbius faces, it leaves us riled
Even though it makes sense with the Timeless Child
Oh everything makes sense with the Timeless Child!
