Coming Home to Story

We’ve got a brand-new puppy dog
His given name is Ted
He likes to eat and play all day
And snuggle up in bed

He woofs and wags his happy tail
He licks his furry feet
When there’s a morsel to be found
He sits up for a treat

Yet there’s another side to him
It saddens me to tell
For twice a day he turns into
The puppy dog from hell

He’s got an evil doggy twin
Whose name is Mister Woo
And all the things that Teddy don’t
That Mister Woo do do

He chews your hand and bites your bum
He nibbles on your toes
He elbows in and steals your food
And wrestles with your clothes

He lies down when you want to walk
And then although you beg
He gets a little boner on
And humps your neighbour’s leg

O Mister Woo is not a dog
You’d really want to stay
But when you think he’s here for life
That’s when he goes away

And back comes little angel Ted
Who never makes a fuss
A schizophrenic Cockerpoo
He’s just the dog for us
