No Walkies For Me

With a crouch and a jump and I miss it Why can’t I get it myself Why can’t I get the biscuit My mistress leaves on the shelf Normally I wouldn’t steal anything But not a happy girl am I She has gone out and left me Didn’t even say goodbye. Normally a tap on the head and that biscuit Comes my way when she’s going out I give her my paw to say thank you This pleases her I have no doubt She thinks I am a well-trained boxer Well I am when I want to be Other times I think, shall I, shan’t I When she says outside for a wee Oh, I hear the key in the door now Shall I sit here and pretend I haven’t tried To get myself a biscuit But the debris might prove that I lied There is flour on the floor And on me now, rice all over the place Will she be cross I wonder Should I hide without a trace So I slink away to my bed now Pretending that I am asleep ‘Til the screams of horror awoke me What she called me would earn a bleep Bad girl was one that she uses Flowered up to make it sound bad Think walkies is out of the picture Now I am feeling sad What a day I am having No biscuits or walkies for me She had better hurry up and let me out Cos now I really must p ee.

Nice poetic way of describing what is going on inside of your dog's head.

Nice one. You do wonder what goes through your dog's heads at times! Ours once went through a vase of flowers, put them in piles apparently based on colour, then ate the carnations!
