Wild Kingdom
There’s a girl I know got vultures in her garden.
There’s a girl I know got corpses on the lawn.
She leaves them there to rot,
coz it doesn’t cost a lot,
though the smell attracts
some comment round the town.
A girl I know got coyotes round her corner.
A girl I know can prove the corner’s there.
But the evidence is thin
for coyotes round her bin,
as she hasn’t caught the
naughty beasts on camera.
A girl I know got eaten by a cougar.
A girl I know got lost out in the bush.
Her dog just didn’t save her
when the pumas came to savour
all her tender bits
and crunchy bones as well.
A girl I know got buried in the graveyard.
Her coffin and the hole it filled were small.
She didn’t need a crater,
for the animals that ate her
didn’t leave a lot behind,
no, not at all…
