The Buck Stops Here

"News Flash" 
Bambi is under arrest
The Associated Press stated this morning
That he had failed the polygraph test

He's been charged with murder one
With the death of his own mother
He was a suspect in the case for years
But always blamed it on his brother

But DNA doesn't lie
And his hoofprints were on the gun
The authorities have been looking for him
That's when he decided to run

They say that he's been hiding out
Somewhere in his daddy's field
Trying to look inconspicuous
Ever since his mama was killed

Anger was the buck's only motive
According to what the authorities say
Thumper wanted to play a game
But she wouldn't let him go out and play

As soon as we get more updates
We'll pass it straight on to you
So stay tuned to your poetry websites
Until I can tell you something new
