Sleeping Dogs Lie

She’d say jump and him how high Should have bought a lead I’d say If only they’d let sleeping dogs lie But an unusual breed he won’t stray When back again he comes running As always with his tail between his legs Though she too can be just as cunning Perhaps she just likes it when he begs Both of them seem to be barking mad As yeah they are a very unusual mix Startling yet at times seems very sad That you can’t teach old dog new tricks What’s said out of spite leaves its mark It’s how it is between this girl and guy Ok there bite not as bad as there bark But if only they’d let sleeping dogs lie Written about a couple once knew always at each other like cat and dog Idea came from an old poem I wrote few years back called old habits die hard ................>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Trying here to use metaphors word play adding a little humour Written by myself David Scott august December 201
