| There’s a special kind of doctor
|
| Who can treat a cat or dog,
|
| A cockatoo that’s got the flu
|
| Or a not-so-jumpy frog.
|
| A well-trained veterinarian,
|
| Most often called a vet,
|
| Has just the skills to cure the ills
|
| Of every kind of pet.
|
| When a dog won’t bark and a cat won’t purr,
|
| When a bird goes bald or a turtle grows fur,
|
| When a rabbit’s got a limp and an earache too,
|
| When a cow goes, «Cough» when she should go, «Moo,»
|
| When a horse gets hiccups and they just won’t stop,
|
| When a fish is all red from a belly flop,
|
| When a gerbil has germs, you can bet that pet’s
|
| Gonna get much better when it sees the vet!
|
| Now animals get sick of course,
|
| The same as you and me,
|
| But the vet can make them well again
|
| And frisky as can be.
|
| So when a hard-luck duck has a broken beak,
|
| When a parrot’s got a cold, and she just can’t speak!
|
| When a mouse gets mumps, you can bet that pet’s
|
| Gonna get much better when it sees the vet!
|
| Yes, a pet’ll get better when it sees the vet! |
