Good Deed Mcgee

Back when McGee was a fireman
A fairly long time in the past
He thought he'd go for a little walk
And feeling quite up to the task

That was until he saw a site
That was cute in a curious way
There he was , that little boy Shawn
Playing as he did everyday 

But this time he sat in a wagon Bright Red
With a ladder tied to the side
And a hose he held very tight in his hand
As a dog and a cat pulled his ride

So McGee played along, and said "Hey there, Chief,
That's a fine fire engine for sure 
But I notice your team is unevenly yoked
It's Ok though, cause I have the cure

I see that the rope that's tied to the dog
Is cinched to the collar 'round his neck
But the rope's 'round the testicles of the poor cat
The problem is this I suspect"

Then McGee started switching the rope on the cat
To his collar to equal the chore 
But Shawn stood up and protested loudly
"So, I won't have a siren no more"
