Gotta dog on it,
My cat doesn't wanna get bit,
Mom's been barkin' for a dog she found,
Not from a pound
No,
Pure bred breed she wants? Oh...

Well that's three hundred steps to the the poor house
Too bad she didn't want something free like a mouse,
Just leave some food out for a week,
And I'd bet money a mouse would give us a peek.

If we had a mouse I could get a cat named Tom,
But that's what I want,  not my mom.

She expects a new puppy pal
In fact, she's quite pushy for a gal.
So we went to pick out a pup,
Up to the pen we arrived and all the boys jumped!
That seemed like too much to handle for her,
So she picks a timid one...
Hoping to get our cat to purr.

Brother and I split the bill,
I thought we'd have to give it a worm pill
But the ******* kept them in good health,
And good thing since the K9 required such wealth.

On the way home I had a nameless dog on my knee,
So glad she didn't ***.
Yet close to home she threw up all over my lap,
It congealed and I felt in a warm wrap covered and odorous we pulled over,
By a field without cover.
I was patient and calm about it,
But what I really wanted to do was throw a fit!
