Leela

My mischievous dog looks like a dingo and acts like a frog.

When she’s in the mood she jumps up and steals food.

With a step and a pounce and a bounce, bounce, bounce.

She is psycho because she runs around hypo.

There’s no stopping Leela when she’s had some Ridbena.

It’s her get up and go and then she puts on a show.

She’s a clown when she starts to spin like a merry-Go-round.

She can be a pain, but no dogs the same.
Like my Leela!
