Writer's Cramp 9/9

Remember all we've told you,
'Bout the things you'll need to do,
Parting words so somber,
Like I haven't got a clue,
Can't leave Baby in the garden,
Can't take her to the zoo,
Can't feed her more than once today,
And, no matter what we do,
Keep away from naughty boys
and the games they like to play,
Lest they slobber over all her toys,
And whine to get their way!

Oh, like your precious Baby,
Doesn't do the same,
But I just smile and nod along,
Play the sitter's game,
Repeat the words you want to hear
then take her to the park,
Slip her off her lead,
Set free her joyous bark.
