Manual for first time pet owners
by @gordon
Liner Notes
Lyrics
Affection comes in many forms Barking in an upbeat way Wagging tails and panting Expressing what they cannot say With longing looks to go outside Guilt trips so easily applied
Dissatisfaction can be indicated By baring of teeth Snarling or growling Under extreme circumstances Teeth may be used Just to emphasise the point
The emotions of their rivals, are easier to assess Contentment just a simple purr They are masters of survival Oh just leave me, I’m sleeping I don’t like the friends you’re keeping I’ll not bother with a greeting
When it’s time for food Motivations are understood Highlight of the day A good reason to stay Some owners have pets Some pets have their servants

Expressing what they cannot say With longing looks to go outside Guilt trips so easily applied Well-put. And a nice sombre vibe! You have me I'm wondering what this might sound like played with an upbeat gallop – it might serve comedic observations like Some owners have pets Some pets have their servants even better.

Nicely done 👏loved the lines: "Teeth may be used Just to emphasise the point" and the last lines are absolute truth, I'm in service of my pets and I'm pretty sure my kitten thinks I'm a human can opener....
