Animal Peril

Me with a dog,owl,and parrot 
Met a girl with a llama and horse
Out in the country beside a tree
What to do? Well, we stopped of course

Talking to my small gang of friends
I asked,"What's that look like to you?"
The dog said, "Bark!" I said, "Not the tree!"
"The girl right here that's in our view!"

The owl said,"Who?", I said, "The girl!"
The parrot said, "Want a cracker?"
I said, "I don't know her that well!"
The girl said, "I've got mace you whacker!"

She said, "Don't you dare come near me!"
"You can just talk to my horse instead!"
But no one can talk to a horse, of course
Unless it's the famous Mr. Ed!

The llama spit on me, then I got maced
This tale doesn't have a happy end
I just asked, "What you think about that?"
The dog said, "Ruff!",  and I said, "Amen!"
