There was a German Shepherd named George
Who - on only the best would gorge
If you offered him ground beef or fish
He would growl and cover his dish
He’d howl with a histamine headache
If fed anything less than steak.

If I had a German Shepherd on my porch
I could be happy, the old grandpa-want-to-be said.
The day was gorgeous, the sunset outstanding.
But he saw none of this, concentrating on what he did not have
Instead of all the things that he did.
His wife put the most beautiful supper on the table that night.
Fried okra, steamed broccoli, steak fixed the way he loved it.
She was disappointed when he did not comment.
Expecting a compliment, maybe a wow.
He was focused on not having a German Shepherd.
More important to him that enjoying his wife or his life.

The German Shepherd terrifies me.
More than any animal I see.
So I stay away,
Every single day
In his giant jaws my flesh I see.

There once was a German Shepherd
Who liked to act like a leopard
He went to get a chicken,
But it went a kickin’
And then they both got peppered.

German Shepherd For Sale Really Cheap
By Elton Camp
Her huge dog was Meg’s delight
Though destructive & prone to bite
In the shrubbery, he liked to dig
And he stank worse than a pig
The cur was a neighborhood blight
Because he barked loudly all night
A sack of dog food lasted only days
He was trouble in so many ways
He bit a neighbor in his own yard
To defend the lawsuit would be hard
The cops were knocking at her door
Saying they wouldn’t take it any more
Her husband finally got his fill
“Our marriage that dog does chill.”
“So choose which it’s going to be.
You can lose either him or me!”
Meg nailed a For Sale poster to a tree
Hoping some dog lover might see
“German shepherd for sale real cheap.
Once you take him, you’ve got to keep.”

I usually work at airports
Checking for things people snort
As well as the wacky weed they smoke
Last week I caught an English bloke
Trying to smuggle ganja and some "coke"
I sniffed him out before he even boarded the plane
Sometimes I wonder if that bloke was insane
And the week before that
I caught a lady with some "pot" in her hat!
I took this job cause I get a buzz
From sniffing out all those drugs with the fuzz
But yesterday I got so high
I almost let a drug smuggler get by!
