Been trying to clean at home today and was thus inspired .......................

Dog Hairs With Everything

I’ve vacuumed and polished,
The house looks its best with ornaments shining like new,
But why is it that when I’ve tidied and cleaned
The dog hairs still stick there like glue?

My friends have come round and the table is set
It groans with such fantastic fare.
But what do I see on my best friends plate
Oh no, it’s a lurking dog hair!

I have dressed in my best, my don’t I look smart.
It’s off to the party I go.
But why is it that when I take off my coat
My blouse sports a coating like snow?

I offer a lift to my friend from the shops
There’s room in the car to share.
But she wrinkles her nose as she gets in the seat
With the layer of grime and the hair.

December comes round and the presents I wrap,
Choosing paper and trimmings with care.
But what do I see under clear sticky tape?
Yes, it’s the token dog hair.

You’re welcome to visit my house anytime
But must take as you find it you see.
For although we could serve you the finest Earl Grey
You might still get a hair in your tea.

I’m part of a pack I’m the leader you see
And my dogs have a definite spring
So welcome, come in and the deal that you get
Is ‘Dog hairs with everything’
