I want a pet, I really do, I want a pet and I don’t
care who!
My mother says pets make a mess but I say “Please, my pet will be the best!”
I’m not quite sure which pet I’ll get. I’m not
quite sure, at least not yet!
?
I want her to say it’s OK, what can I do to get a pet
today?
Tell me which you think she’ll choose, if we give her choices we cannot
lose!
A darling, snarling dog?
A prissy, pretty, princess of a kitty?
A crazy, colorful parakeet?
Bountiful, beautiful fish?
A sticky, slimy, slithering snake?
You tell me which pet is king and for that pet I’ll
do anything!
