At a Dog Bar Out West

Sportin' a wrap on one foot
A hard grimace set on his jaw
A Beagle walked in, holdin a grudge
Because somebody shot his paw!

He growled, "Pour me a rain water,"
"And none of that chlorine laced crap"
The Bar dog, a well known poodle,
Said, "Sir, I take umbrage at that!"

A German Shepard said, "I'm Sheriff,"
"In charge of the pet carrier clink"
"Don't get a bee in your bonnet"
"And bar dog will pour you a drink"

The Beagle said, "I'm an abandon,"
"Raised in dirty alleys and such"
"That bein' said, about my bite,"
"It's worse than my bark, but not much"

Bar dogs sister, Pixie Poodle
Said, "Hold on boys I know this cur"
"In fact we met in an alley,"
"But I'll vouch for this Beagle for sure!"

She and the Beagle left together
Her brother, of course, had a fit!
Not to be tellin' tails out of school,
But theirs were waggin' quite a bit!

G'day PAT … what a ripper satirical verse. I can't stop bloody giggling. Should be made into an animated film I reckon. It's so darn witty - thanks PAT - Lindsay
