Ruskie the Raccoon-Home Invasion
Ruskie the racoon
Saw the moon
Started to cry
Knowing the critter had to try
Defending some one's lie
From stars it did shine
Onto the untankful line
A planet in the night
Trying to be bright
Giving off enough light
Wearing a bandit mask
Ruskie was giving a violent task
Invading a home
To see if anyone was alone
Opening the door
Ruskie crept on the floor
Ready to declare it clear
Nothing to fear
Until a small image did appear
Coming up from Ruskie’s rear
Holding a silver firearm
Used on the cattle back at the barn
With survival in the eye
A child had the decision 'if Ruskie was going to die?'
There was a pleaded request
Before sending Ruskie to a place to rest
“Ruskie please stop
Or I will pull this trigger making a sound that will go pop pop
And if this does happen
In your pants you will do some crappin”
