The Fat Boys

Legends before their time running free was their crime Before they were even near just as quickly they disappeared One was black as night the other fluffy and white Two boys up to no good running wild in the neighborhood Peeing where they shouldn't pee poo piles spreading misery But the worst of their crime was the random barking from behind Just picking up the morning paper their bark strikes like a viper You jump into the porch roof but they vanished in a poof Washing the car their bark scares you hard You fling the water hose onto angry neighbors it flows Chasing cars chasing bikes bark and growl with all their might Running here no over there what a crazy pair But this is how the story ends two little hombres are now fenced in They invaded my yard and stole my heart the Fat boys now would never depart They are my little doggies my joy forever my silly little Fat Boys
