Ruckus in the Barnyard
The farmer was about to kill
The pig of the fattest weight
When pig cried out,
"I don't want to be on your plate!"
"Okay," said the farmer
And took out his gun again
This time to kill the fattest hen
When the hen stopped him short,
And said, "Dear farmer, I've chicks to support!"
The pig and the hen took a sigh of relief
And the farmer was out for beef
When the cow stopped him too
When she said, "How can you kill me after all I've given you?"
So instead of a killing spree
The farmer had carrots, lettuce and broccoli!

The Frog and the Dog
There once were a frog and a dog
Who both were resting on al log
At the end of the day
They had drifted away
Into the deep blue fog.
