Jeremys Girls

Jeremy's Girls. Jeremy loses each girl that he gets Because they all take second place to his pets Keeping this one around meant he had to get rid of all of his pets, so here's what he did... He buried his worm and drowned his pet fish He threw his cockatoo over a cliff He shoved his python high up in a tree And he dropped his pet dolphin into the sea His rock lizard got a small hole in a wall While his cat had to live somewhere terribly tall His Horses were left in a field with some hay While his Tortoise would get just a lettuce a day His Penguin was dumped in a pond full of fish And his dog just got biscuits and meat in his dish His newt he placed under a very wet stone While his sly old pet fox had to eat all alone His pet cow was left to eat nothing but grass While his favourite tapeworm he tucked somewhere dark Someone once told him to just trust his mother And one day his lady ran off with another And so we get close to where this story ends A life with no lady, a life with no friends Everyday was such a miserable day Now that his pets had all gone away But one day he heard a noise outside his door His pets were all there, perhaps a few more
