Let me tell you a story
About a little dog
Her family had abandoned her
Alone in the fog

It starts on a street
On a very cold night
Snowball heard someone coming
She yapped in delight

She thought it was her parents
Whom passed her every noon
But in fact it was the dog catchers
That strode out of the gloom

However, Snowball was a lucky-duck
Still put in captivity
But she won the heart of the security
And got one hour free activity
