Bob bought himself a dog,
But everyone took him for a hog.
The dog's name was Rex, for it suited him so,
He looked just like bob's pig named Joe.

Bob was having a barbie one day,
It happened to be the 21st of May.
Rex jumped up and snatched the beef,
And ran down to eat it at the reef.

Bob ran and ran and ran some more,
He ran so hard he hit the floor.
Rex found another dog which chased Bob away,
Rex could go home another day.

Rex settled himself in the sand,
He was about to feast it was grand.
The other dog came, she was a girl.
Rex had his feast with the girl named Pearl.

When Rex decied to go home that day,
He wasn't alone, that's the least I can say!
Rex had 5 pups with his girl-friend.
And at last has comes to an end.
