Foxes
Why do foxes scream like babies?
Is it because they’ve all got rabies?
Maybe they are all just cry-babies
But then that’s just supposition and maybes
Do foxes scream, like I scream, for ice cream?
Or are they just letting off a little steam
Or are they having a nightmare of a daydream
Have they heard somebody blaspheme?
Or being caught in somebody’s hi-beam
Or suffering from low self esteem
Maybe drunk on Bailey’s Irish Cream
Or Having Asda coupons too late to redeem
Or sore guts from too much Haagen-Dazs Ice cream
Watching to many episodes of the A – Team
Trying to understand Shakespeare’s Midsummer Nights dream
Impersonating Michael Jackson to the extreme
Trying to groom his bushy tail with Brylcreme
Trying to take a urine sample midstream
Making tea, burning his paw on Kettle steam
Failing to keep to his low fat diet regime
Did somebody burn and smoke his pipe dream
Did somebody drink his last bottle of Jim Beam?
Is he waking up from an unfinished wet dream?
Maybe it’s none of the above he’s employing
Maybe he’s screaming just to be bloody annoying
Is it because they’ve all got rabies?
Maybe they are all just cry-babies
But then that’s just supposition and maybes
Do foxes scream, like I scream, for ice cream?
Or are they just letting off a little steam
Or are they having a nightmare of a daydream
Have they heard somebody blaspheme?
Or being caught in somebody’s hi-beam
Or suffering from low self esteem
Maybe drunk on Bailey’s Irish Cream
Or Having Asda coupons too late to redeem
Or sore guts from too much Haagen-Dazs Ice cream
Watching to many episodes of the A – Team
Trying to understand Shakespeare’s Midsummer Nights dream
Impersonating Michael Jackson to the extreme

Trying to take a urine sample midstream

Failing to keep to his low fat diet regime
Did somebody burn and smoke his pipe dream
Did somebody drink his last bottle of Jim Beam?
Is he waking up from an unfinished wet dream?
Maybe it’s none of the above he’s employing
Maybe he’s screaming just to be bloody annoying
