He's an Alien from Space
If you think that's a "spoof",
Come in and I'll show you
The hole in the roof.
His entrance was noisy
And not very proper,
And his 'ship' filled that hole
Like an overgrown stopper.
As I crept towards the 'ship',
I heard this "thing" moan,
It was really in trouble,
I could tell by its tone.
Then, we eyeballed each other
Each fearing his lot,
I shouted, "You're hairy."
He shouted, "You're Not".
Well, our worlds came together
That incredible day.
My wife said to lose him,
The kids, "Let him stay".
He discovered the camera,
Snaps "Pics" by the hour,
When you're sleeping in bed
Or taking a shower.
And his next favorite pastime
Is feeding the cat.
On Melmac, they eat rat
But, they've got to be fat.
So, he feeds it, then stalks it
But, so far as I know,
He never can catch it,
She's too fast, he's to slow.
He's a 'hair-ball', a charmer
A rogue, an upstart,
But this Heaven-sent rascal,
Sure captured my heart.
