Freddy and Frieda Flea

Both Freddy and Frieda Flea Had an itch and felt the need To leave their home on Beagle back So they packed their bags while Fido napped They'd heard magical tales of the Big Top Since their larva days on top the pup They weren't here this time to clown around As they found themselves circus bound They hitched a ride in a hobos beard Too no telling who knows where But one thing that is perfectly clear Both those fleas are outta here Along the way they purchased needs In a marketplace made just for fleas Like underwear and mint toothpaste Soap on a Rope to wash their face Plus deodorant, quite a bit You need a lot of it when you've got 6 pits The rumor mill can be very mean Fleas, after all, are fairly clean After a day of personal shopping It was all aboard for more beard hopping Riding that hobo from coast to coast In this their new hairy chateau As circuses go they started their own Advertising on the hobos back cause he never turns around Over time their acts they've modified As the flaming hoops set the hobos beard on fire Now with Freddy as Ring Master and Frieda on trapeze They are the Greatest Show On Earth, at least among fleas
