I am sorry
I beg your pardon?
Did you say there's a Velociraptor in your garden?
If there is then please take care
It's well known
They don't like to share.
They'll turn on you
with a moments notice,
Not just you, but me and Otis.
This could be our 'end of days'
Underneath his steely wicked gaze.
The raptors laugh and scurry along, exclaiming "this has been a curious song!"
And they're right because you see, they never liked living in our tree?
