Bill and Ben the flower pot men
The Clangers and a soup dragon
Bungle and Jeffery and a Rainbow in the sky
Crackerjack, Banana splits go wild
Dick Dastardly and Muttley
Mr Magoo is that you
The Flintstones yabba dabba do
just some of my childhood tv friends

To my bigger, younger brother...
From our fascination with Maurice Greene
Exactly how many Olympic sprint medals did he win?
To our common love for dogs...Danger, ever on guard!
Hey, remember we promised mom we would...?
The kites we crafted and flew to the wind in August
The tops we spun to the woven string in the dust
To the marbles we shot to score through the hole
And the megacities we built to last in the soil
The Ninja Turtles depicted in drawings out of the sewage
And oh, the toy cars we brought to life in the garage
Long before Transformers became a blockbuster
We knew they could come to life with us as puppet masters
The obsession continues, with Usain Bolt
You’ve now just about got the same built
It’s kinda intimidating now to call you 'Muttley'
I guess we watched too many cartoons growin up…didn’t we?

I have a pup called Sheeba
And Muttley is her mate,
And when it comes to dinner time
My pups are never late.
They ate my Gargoyle Monster Set,
They ate my teddy-bear,
They ate my pet goanna,
They just didn't seem to care.
They ate my budgie Hercules,
They ate my mother's mat,
Now they waddle everywhere,
My pups are very fat.
