Rose is Moonlighting...
I don't really know
If I should say it is so
The Rose actin' nifty
But a little bit shifty...
She's aware we be movin'
Relieved we'll be groovin'
But yet I have found
With all the seeking
No answers no matter
Rose what you be leaking...?
Me, of course...
I am open book...
Unfortunately
For all public to look.
But here's why I think
The Rose is Moonlight'n....
suddenly needed!
A 'notar-ee....'
There appeared Rose
Her paw on my knee
Rose said, 'do it now...
Don't think you have time...
To run all around
The stamp can be mine!'
So I sez to my Pet
‘So how is it legal?
She said, “got my stamp...
Because I'm so Regal.”
Well didn't surprise me
She is quite the Queen...
But how does it pass...
Paw on line or between?
She said, " it is a chip...
At the Spa they implant...
Don't ask any questions
On paranoid rant..."
Just pay my $5
Or salmon will do
Sardines on the side
Nice tip would be, too.”
But I really dunno
Something else isn't right
She's shifty and loose
Not wired and uptight
I'm glad she feels purpose
As work gratifi'n
But somehow her nosin'
Now feels like she's spy'in...
I mean when one claims
That their paw is a witness
'To what?' I would say?
Just WHO is the litmus...
But I'm glad she's an 'in'
With the powers that be.
Perhaps she'll outlive me
At least support me.
So what can I say?
The papers she sign
We closed on the house
Stars begin to align...
