lyrics

Your poem made that dog bark
I don’t think he enjoyed it
Your poem made that dog bark
I think you have annoyed it

Your poem is a bad’un
It is an utter mess
And now that dog is pitifully
Howling with distress

The audience is silent
No woops to claps no cheers
And that dog is on his hind legs
With his paws inside his ears

He’s dug a hole
But not to hide his bone because instead
He’s stooped down
And now he’s busy burying his head

That dog has just had kittens
He’s climbing up a tree
‘Cause he doesn’t want to have to put up
With your poetry

He doesn’t want to listen
He doesn’t want to hear it
If your poem smelled like dog food
Then he still would not go near it

‘Cause that canine is discerning
He’s a pooch with pucker taste
That’s why he’s found the exit
With the speediest of haste

My poem made that dog bark
He’s made his feelings clear
He’s woofed his disapproval
And he won’t be staying here

And now I am dumbfounded
I’m astonished, I’m agog
For I cannot believe it
I’ve been heckled by a dog
