My dad’s a secret agent He’s an undercover spy. He’s the world’s best detective. He’s the perfect private eye. He’s a Pinkerton, a gumshoe. He’s a snoop and he’s a sleuth. He’s unrivaled at detecting and uncovering the truth. He’s got eyesight like an eagle. He’s got hearing like a bat. He can out-smell any bloodhound He’s as stealthy as a cat. He can locate nearly anything with elementary ease. But no matter how he looks and looks my dad cant find his keys. By Kenn Nesbitt
