Analysis of my roommates
I have 2 roommates, they are always there
lounging on my sofa, or in my favourite chair
they never pay their share of rent, they live without a care
try to tell them anything they bat their eyes and stare
my roommates are very lazy they sleep all day
They eat all my food and I always end up having to pay
the don't work, my roommates
they have never had a job
one breaks all my furniture
and the other one is a slob
they try and f?&%$ sleep with me every single night
some would say perverted, but I find it quite a delight
but I forgive them all these things
and in the end I will say
id prefer these cats as my roomates
over humans any day
