Mary and me sat down for tea Invited the cat and a fat flea Knock on the door, it was a frog Asked to join in, he'd brought some grog Next was a dog, he came from next door But then it got scary, next came a wild boar Then an elephant from the zoo down the road Driving a Ford arrived a big toad Now you can imagine how crowded this was Especially when a shark came flashing his jaws I looked at Mary and she looked at me We need to get out of here we both did agree Then and there without much ado We left our home which had become a zoo

About this poem:
Unless you want to be inundated by animals don't invite that blasted cat and her fat flea. We never did get the house back. At last count there was seven hundred and sixty two animals living there. We now live in a tree house.
