Duck Abuse

Hiring the wolf 
to track you down 
A bounty is on your head, 
he will sniff out the culprit 
As for the pig, 
he plays the martyr in all this, 

the stench of it 
in claiming to be guilty 
Beasts threatening 
to make curry 
if only the pig knew 
what he was claiming responsibility for, 
he would be traumatized 
By the actions involved 

Was not me he would say 
he did threaten my life 
In front of a fowl jury 
The duck 
is loosing his feathers 

Once upon a time 
He was a very happy duck 
Now with all this stress, 
a very upset duck 
we have here on our hands, 
broke down in tears, 
cannot get this video out of his head 
He is now getting counciling 

He needs a good quack solicitor 
That should surely 
put the badness out of the culprit, 
do not think for one minute 
the duck is taking this lying down, 
the duck demands an apology, 
hidden away from public view 

Written with the hand of the accused, 
if not he is claiming traumatic stress 
When he catches the culprit, 
he wants a ticket to Disneyland 
Might ease his aching head 

Would like to hear 
the villains side of the story, 
he seems afraid 
to come out of the wood work, 
someone else the pig 
tries to take the fall for him, 
I will keep you updated 
As the wolf fills me in, 

little pig,little pig watch out 
the wolf is on the prowl, 
trying to pick up the scent, 
huffing and puffing, 

he just wants to be 
a cool duck again 
In his defense, 
solitude is no life
 for this duck, 
he wants video nasty caught 

As for the duck killers 
Look into the eyes 
Look into the eyes 
this duck ain't crazy 
Not even mad 
he is loosing the plot completely 

turning psycho 
A mention of orange sauce 
Cooked on a plate 
with reference 
To carving 

He is loosing 
the grasp of sanity 
This duck is totally insane 
Look into his eyes 
He has lost his soul 
Sick as a dog 
no joke 
in the eyes 
Crazy duck

These personifications..I can see so much behind this story..without seeing and feel pain without touching it.When somebody hurts us so much ..We might look crazy..insane..We might act weird..but anyone who had a hard time in life would understand our act and knows who to blame.I feel so much pain here..I do
