Nipper in Slipper


It was Friday night teatime on sleepover day
When me and the gang got the call to stop play
So we headed inside to where parent was shouting
To kitchen where dog looked for bowl to put snout in

We sat round the table all elbows and spoons
And gulped when we saw what came into the room
Five plates of liver with onions on side
And cabbage and parsnips along for the ride

Now this wasn't Friday night sleepover stuff
And seeing it we knew it would not be enough
So we planned that at midnight when parents were sleeping
The gang would go creeping to kitchen for sweet things

The parents threw wobblers when good food was wasted
So plates must be emptied before they were tasted
So under the table old four paws was slurping
And chewing and chomping and drooling and burping

When liver filled dog was asleep under table
And plates were as clean as a Trojan horse stable
We slipped off to sofa to watch the cartoons
And yawned each time parents came into the room

We knew that we had to make parents believe that
The gang was as tired as a melon filled fruit bat
And when parents sent us to bed base for sleep
They'd go themselves early and leave us to creep
