Every Dog
I’m not the sort of person who
Gets angry far too quickly
I’ll smile politely, nod my head
Agree and be quite sickly
I will not be controversial
Not shout or yell or scream or
Not argue, but explain myself
In a calm relaxed demeanour
So please be understanding
Don’t think because I’m meek
I’ll put up with your flannel
It doesn’t mean I’m weak
So, should I lose my temper
You’d best get out my way
‘cos I won’t restrain my anger
And, this dog will have his day
