The Adjective Blues
© Rudolph 2009
I got the Adjective Blues
I got a gray, grumpy goat.
I got the Adjective Blues.
It wears a white, wooly coat.
Now this goat will eat just about anything,
but what it likes most is wet, wild oats!
I got the Adjective Blues.
I got a giant, jumpy frog.
I got the Adjective Blues.
It lives in a long, lopsided log.
Now mostly it eats fruity, frivolous, flies
but once in a while it eats a whole, hairy hog!
I got the Adjective Blues.
I got a slick, slippery snake.
I got the Adjective Blues.
It swims in a deep, dreary lake.
It eats rats, frogs, and little mice,
but for dessert it likes frosty, chocolate cake!
I got the Adjective Blues
I got a cool, curvy cat.
I got the Adjective Blues
It wears a fine, flimsy hat.
Now it nibbles on tuna fish throughout the day,
but really likes to snack on a tasty, wharf rat!
I got the Adjective Blues
I got a puny, yellow, bird.
I got the Adjective Blues
It is a frail, fluffy nerd.
I try to feed it fat worms like you’d think it would want,
but all it will eat is boring, bean curd!
I got the Adjective Blues
I got a pot bellied pig.
I got the Adjective Blues
It wears a white, powdered wig.
Now it eats gruesome gruel and corn on the cob,
but what it really craves is muddy, mulberry figs!
I got the Adjective Blues
My critters are strange and weird.
I got the Adjective Blues
They all have long, itchy beards.
They don’t eat normal, ordinary foods.
Maybe I went wrong with the way they were reared.
Maybe I went wrong with the way they were reared.
Maybe I went wrong with the way they were reared.
Maybe I went wrong with the way they were reared.
Ooops!
