Me -
for a pet!?
C'mon ...
Look at me!
It's easy to see
I'm nothing but a
clumsy old clod
Yeah, it's a great bet
that I'll never win
a beauty pageant
I mean, c'mon!
You have to admit it
I'm so awfully odd
I'd be hard for even
Stephen King to imagine
Look at me!
It's easy to see
that I'm not really up
on the latest fashion
Truth be told,
if it must be known:
Fruit, quite frankly,
is my greatest passion
Think about it!
I'm all stalagmites
and latex
to be metaphoric
Why me?
I'm so completely
out of date
that I look
prehistoric
You could NOT
possibly
want me
Why I'm
practically
all tail!
I'm neither
hip nor hot
and hardly
smooth
I'm bumpy
and scaly
and ecto-
therm-
ically
cool.
So why
not go
out and
find
yourself
a frog
or a fish
or a dog
or a cat
and
leave
me be
peace-
fully
right
here
where
I'm
at?
