A few years ago we spent a mad month getting ready for trapping. We had several late nights dyeing and waxing traps to get ready for the first day of trapping season. A couple nights before, while I was going through my nightly night cream regimine, hubby was laying in bed and laughed then said he thought he was tired. I asked why, and he said it was because he just made up a song. Determine for yourself:
I ran into a porcupine
and he slapped me with his tail
A quill stuck in my finger
and I let out a wail.
I whacked him in the noggin
with my bucket filled with shale
When I ran into a porcupine
and he slapped me with his tail.

Another song from when hubby was tired, it's to the tune of "Cocacobana"
Her name was Lola, she was a showgirl
She had bullets in her hair and a face that'd really scare
Oh yeah she looked so fine
Just like a porcupine
I don't know why I watched her show
But now I'm blind
At the Copa, Copacobana
Where Lola threw quills at bandanas
***********************************************************
Another for your consideration:
Stanley the Trapper
(to the tune of Frosty the Snowman)
Down through the village with a turtle on his hand
Running here and there and around the square
Yelling "Help me if you can!"
There must have been some magic in that snapping turtle he found
For when it clamped upon his hand he began to dance around
Stanley the trapper was alive as he could be
His hand was hurt and it bled a lot
Just the same as his right knee.
*******************************************************
this is the original silly song, written in the Marine Corps with a friend at 3am
The Squirrel Song
Caught up in the city
Where trees are seldom seen
My mind goes drifting back
To a forest and a stream
I still recall the mornings
With the sunrise through the trees
And the greetings from God's creatures
Peeing in the breeze

We have an Austrailian Shepherd, red merle, named Ranger
A song about Ranger (to the tune of Copacobana)
His name is Ranger
He is a puppy
He has multi-colored hair
And a tail just like a bear
He likes to eat his treats
and attack his feets

Hubby frequently leads cadence while marching troops. The cadences he learned in the Marines are no longer politically correct, so at times he tries to come up with new words to old cadences. He made one up about our dog Ranger to the cadence "Airborne Ranger"
Fuzzy Ranger, Fuzzy Ranger where have you been?
Out in the yard going potty again.
Fuzzy Ranger, Fuzzy Ranger what did you do?
Left a steamin' package beside your shoe.
