Becky and the Toad

Am dog watching at my sisters When her pooch comes in from the grass Dangling from her mouth is a leg of a toad The rest is in her mouth Geez I thought now its trouble The blasted toad popped out Just as Becky rolled on the floor Eyes rolling and tongue hanging out I washed out her mouth with fresh water As I call the vet from my phone Can u come immediately Stupid dog has caught a toad She is lying on the floor eyes rolling Am worried that she will die Vet said am on my way I sat down and started to cry My sister’s going to kill me If Becky isn’t here when theyre home I’m going kill Becky for getting me Into this nightmare alone Vet arrives as Becky Starts snoring , dreaming of the next doors boy Was after the vet handed me the large bill I noticed the toad was a toy.
