Go and Stretch a Puppy's Tail - With Apology To John Donne

Go and stretch a puppy's tail, Get with rice a manioc root, Tell me if sun will buy moon a veil, Or to who he gave her leather boot, Teach me to hear coyote’s singing, Or to keep off drunk bees’ stinging, And sniff What skiff May tell you where I gobble lollipop. If you think that you are so witty, And brag you can do anything worse; Visit all the liquor shops in the city, Till you spend last loonie in your purse; You, when you come home, will tell me, All the grand bottles that you did see, And swear, No where You saw any man gobbling lollipop. If you find one, let our son know, It’ll water his mouth with sweet; Yet I’m sure, son will not go, Though at next door you might meet; And he were eating, when you met him, And last, till you guide our son there, Yet he Will be Gobbling bottles of Madeira, not lollipop.
