once bitten,bite back
My buddy has this lttle dog
that kept biting at my heels
I picked him up and bit him back
and said now you know how it feels.
He yelped and whinned and wimpered
then hid behind the chair
he could stay there till the rooster crowed
I didn't really care.
Don't get me wrong I do like dogs
but not those little yappers
the ones that are so darn small
you could flush them down a crapper.
these little dogs they think their tough
till something sets them straight
it's true i really bit that dogand man did it feel great.
