Ooh and aah we whine as puppies gambol
Aah and ooh we purr as kittens caper
Their tom-foolery consummately droll
As they fumble around in toilet paper.
Chocolate boxes and gushing adverts
Sentimentality dripping off every frame
Pets at home, pets in the park, pets asleep
And even dogs that apparently play cards.
So when you’re next fussing over pets
Remember the Syrians, Yemeni’s too
Afghans and Libyans forgotten by you
Bleeding and dying left without hope
But then again, that puppy is so dope.
