Slimy Or Spiny
Two little kittens and a very big dog
Gazed at the creature that was sitting on a log
It looked a little slimy and it really wasn’t spiny
So, you can’t mistake a bullfrog for a hedgehog…
No, you can’t mistake a bullfrog for a hedgehog.
One little kitten said, “Please tell me who you are.”
The creature said, “The question that you ask me is bizarre,
For one lives under bushes and the other in a bog,
So, you can’t mistake a bullfrog for a hedgehog….
No, you can’t mistake a bullfrog for a hedgehog.”
The dog said, “Well I’m still not sure, could you remind me please?”
The creature said, “My skin is green and I cannot get fleas,
So though I do eat worms and slugs by moonlight or in fog,
You can’t mistake a bullfrog for a hedgehog…
No, you can’t mistake a bullfrog for a hedgehog.”
The other kitten said, “Did you come from a witch’s wand?”
A hedgehog yelled, “His skin has warts from living in a pond,
I saw him hop this morning from the pond across the road,
And you can’t mistake a hedgehog for a toad…
No, you can’t mistake a hedgehog for a toad!”
