We have Cockers and Shih-Tzus, Chihuahuas, and Poodles,
Golden Retrievers and Labradoodles.
They're all just fine, you won't hear us complain
They just don't compare to the Mighty Great Dane.
My loyal companion, you stand so tall
Come down off my shoulders before we both fall.
Your water bowl's the size of a childrens pool
There aren't enough towels to mop up the drool.
If you sit next to him, he'll just start pushin'
Hogging every inch of the sofa cushion.
If his belly starts rumbling, clear out the room,
The resulting odor could just be your doom.
Expensive to feed? You bet they are
More costly than putting gas in your car.
You must have a yard thats nice and roomy,
For a flower bed's ruined when they get the zoomies.
They'll get in your face and let go a burp,
Well versed in the art of how to "counter surf".
Those four big paws can hold lots of mud,
I hope you're not partial to a nice clean rug.
When out on a walk, people will prattle,
You just smile and reply...nope...no saddle.
They look so peaceful as they lie on the floor,
Keeping you awake with their thunderous snore.
Just one look in those soulful eyes,
It really will come as no surprise...
They fill our hearts and homes with love,
Surely they are sent from heaven above.
How can you not fall for these GENTLE GIANTS?
It really doesn't require a degree in Rocket Science.
If you don't understand, I just can't explain
How nothing compares to the Mighty Great Dane!
