Oh four foot squirrel, |
|
Why do you stand so tall? |
|
I think it's trickery, |
|
And you're not big at all. |
|
Do you not see the other |
|
Squirrels laughing loud |
|
At your ill-thought through dreams |
|
Of height behind a hedgy shroud? |
|
Now don't look so discouraged that |
|
We saw right through your scheme, |
|
For after all what else are squirrels |
|
Ought to do but dream? |
|
But delusions of grandeur |
|
Somehow crept into your head |
|
While all the other squirrels |
|
Dreamt of hazelnuts instead. |
|
Oh four foot squirrel, |
|
Why do you look away? |
|
Are you offended by the |
|
Harsh words that we say? |
|
Just bear in mind friend |
|
That whatever you do, |
|
We'll always be here |
|
Just to point and laugh at you. |
