No Barking
Its all about the space
I'm afraid you must be quiet
No barking my love
We don't want to start a riot
Of discontented neighbors
Who will come out to swear
At your sweet barking face
And the scowl on mine that they dare
Not challenge my protector
My little alarm so fine
No barking now my Mister
You have to wait until the time
The burgler is climbing in
To steal our priceless stuff
(We have priceless stuff ...? )
Then you'll bark enough
To wake the deafest on the block
And I'll be so proud of you
So no barking at the mailman
He isn't a bone to chew
And no barking at the visitor
Who comes to laugh with us
No barking right now
We don't want any fuss
So, let's go off to the park
Where you can be a part
Of other dogs who play
And bark with all your heart!
