Get Lost Squirrel by ~Tawaki:iconTawaki:



Get lost, squirrel!
Get away from my birdfeeder!

I set that feeder up today
I thought some birds would come my way
Instead I got you, sneaky thing
You're not welcome without wings
You shimmy down the feeder pole
Hog the birdseed 'till you're full
And then you knock the feeder down!
Get lost, squirrel!  Get out of town!

Get lost, squirrel!
Get away from my birdfeeder!

Mister squirrel, oh my word!
That seed was only for the birds!
You flap your tail as 'twere a wing
I'm not fooled by that sort of thing
You sneak down, right past that baffle
And seed after seed you snaffle
And then you knock the feeder down!
Get lost, squirrel!  Get out of town!

Get lost, squirrel!
Get away from my birdfeeder!

Mister Nice Guy goes away
Time to get mean, make you pay
I have had it with your greed
I'll put pepper in the seed
You sneak to the feed for birds
Your paw now feels like it burns.
In disbelief now down you go
This feeder you will raid no mo'

That's right, squirrel!
Stay away from my birdfeed-  ARGH!
You like spicy foods!?
Back to the drawing board.

I wrote this poem to vent over birdseed-stealing squirrels.

LOL! I'd try that, but I like our squirrels' visits - yes, it's a pest, but it makes me laugh, too!
:iconkayaksailor:
So very true! This made me laugh, too... :D

I understand this sentiment too well. Squirrels can be very annoying.

Malapropism is my fiend.
