If you were going to get a pet
what kind of ani­mal would you get.

A soft-bodied dog, a hen
Feathers and fur to begin it again.

At the end of the day, when it gets dark,
I saw an ani­mal in the park.

Bring it home to give to you
I have seen ani­mals break in two.

You were hoping for some­thing soft
and loyal and clean and won­drous­ly care­ful.

A form of other­wise vicious habit
Can have long ears and be cal­led a rab­bit.

Dead, died, will die, want,
Morning, mid­night, I asked you

If you were going to get a pet
What kind of ani­mal would you get.
