My mum has bathed me today
and I'm none too pleased
What with shampoo up my nose
I just sneezed and sneezed..
There I sat just like a drowned rat, all sopping wet
through
My mum kept saying " What a beauty, everyone will love
you"
I was not bothered about anyone stopping to admire me,
I only wanted to jump out the bath and shake myself you
see.
I was wrapped in a towel tightly and set down on the
floor
And I tried to make a beeline towards the bathroom door.
"No you don't" said mum with comb and hairdryer ready
As she blew warm air through my coat taking it quite
steady.
It tickled as she went round my ears and over my fat
belly,
When the dryer went round my tail, my legs all went like
jelly.
She brushed my coat until I looked like a powder puff
I kept thinking to myself ‘hurry up mum I have had
enough'.
I was glad when I was dry because I wanted my food and
drink. And I wanted to get in the garden to get rid of
shampoo stink.
When I finally got in the backyard I dug for my doggy
chew
But when my mum came out she said " Look at the state of
you,
Your face is black and so are your paws, what a waste of
time.
Come in here you little madam let me wipe off all the
grime."
My mum said she adores me although I make her life tough
And am I the only CAIRN TERRIER that likes to look a
scruff.
She did not stay cross with me for long because she
loves me so
And I hope that it will be quite a while before in the
bath again I go.
