Puppies to sleep,
they put puppies to sleep,
don't they,
when they grow too old
to enjoy the lives they live?
once they've given
all they can give,
and enjoyed
all they can enjoy.
Bodies grow old
and wear out
as time passes by
they squeak
and creak
and fall to pieces,
and deliver such great pain
til the simplest of tasks,
can not be completed
with out many times refrain.
to catch the breath and bite the bullet,
to back off and get another run
at the task at hand,
it just gets harder and harder,
again and again,
til the end.
Misery,
misery,
Misery.
They put puppies to sleep,
to put them out of there
misery,
don't they?
