my dog stands barking by the door
his nails click on the tile floor
the air outside the house is chill
if i dont walk him no one will

after vast quantities of food
the familys in a sleepy mood
as im awake i must now go
& round the block pace to and fro

the trees are bare the wind is cold
i cant believe i was cajoled
to walk this small ungrateful beast
while all the rest on turkey feast
