It was a wee little pup I spied
I brought him home to my bride
        A mistake indeed
      on our floor he peed
Out Out Damned Spot, she cried

And so my pup had earned his name
Although he never felt his shame
           He did it again
         On no, my friend
Angry wife told me I was to blame

She told me the little pup must go
"I'm so tired of his bladder's flow"
          Sorry, my dear
              But I fear
My answer to your pleas is NO

Spot and I are now on our own
No more wife to nag and moan
          I trained Spot
          To use the pot
He's rewarded with a meaty bone.
