The Animal Lover
Please be careful where you sit,
The cat had a coughing fit.
She launched a hairball,
So just be careful.
I wouldn’t want you wearing it.
And be careful where you stand,
The dog has an overactive gland.
Your leg he’ll hump
If you don’t jump.
He’s getting out of hand.
And please try not to lean,
My Parakeet is kind of mean,
If you get too close,
He’ll bite your nose,
You see to him it’s just protein.
And take care if you should squat,
My Boa Constrictor’s not feeling too hot,
Rather than greet you,
He’d probably eat you,
Whether you wanted him to or not.
Don’t hang from the chandelier,
My Tarantula won’t like you near,
Just by seeing her sight,
Gives people quite a fright,
And she only attacks when there is fear.
And be careful where you lay,
The hamster got out today.
Small babies she’s throwing,
Hey, where are you going?
I hope you’ve enjoyed your stay.
