Hark! Hark!
A lark!
Bark! Bark!
That's a dog.

"Ah, you faithful key ring,
You hold my keys so well,
You keep them from getting
Scattered all to hell.

There's just one little problem,
(I hold no grudges, mind you)
Whenever I'm locked out
I can never seem to find you!

I ask myself why,
Oh, why did I lock it?
Then I find you're where I left you---
Right there, in my pocket!

My wife insisted
"Don't feed the stray cat!"
"No", said I.
"I would never do that!"
The cat looked up
and seemed to imply
That it was fully aware
I was telling a lie.
