Work rating: Low


The daughter of the village Maire Is very fresh and very fair,            A dazzling eyeful; She throws upon me such a spell That though my love I dare not tell,            My heart is sighful. She has the cutest brown caniche, The French for "poodle" on a leash,            While I have Bingo; A dog of doubtful pedigree, Part pug or pom or chow maybe,            But full of stingo. The daughter of the village Maire Would like to speak with me, I`ll swear,            In her sweet lingo; But parlez-vous I find a bore, For I am British to the core,            And so is Bingo Yet just to-day as we passed by, Our two dogs haulted eye to eye,            In friendly poses; Oh, how I hope to-morrow they Will wag their tails in merry play,            And rub their noses.    *    *    *    *    *    *    * The daughter of the village Maire Today gave me a frigid stare,            My hopes are blighted. I`ll tell you how it came to pass . . . Last evening in the Square, alas!            My sweet I sighted; And as she sauntered with her pet, Her dainty, her adored Frolette,            I cried: "By Jingo!" Well, call it chance or call it fate, I made a dash . . . Too late, too late!            Oh, naughty Bingo! The daughter of the village Maire That you`ll forgive me, is my prayer            And also Bingo. You should have shielded your caniche: You saw my dog strain on his leash            And like a spring go. They say that Love will find a way - It definitely did, that day . . .            Oh, canine noodles! Now it is only left to me To wonder - will your offspring be            Poms, pugs or poodles?
