Plague
Croak, Ribbit, Chirp.
The frogs, they call & burp.
Ribbit, Chirp, Croak.
They bellow from their throat.
Croak, Chirp, Ribbit.
There is no way to end it.
The toads are taking over.
So loud that I can't sleep.
You'd think they'd find a river.
At least a pond or creek.
Instead they found my backyard.
A perfect stage to sing their song.
It's not a peaceful, country noise.
It's SO LOUD all night long!!
What ever shall I do?
Care to take a guess?
Dang sure can't go giggin'.
It would be an awful mess.
They're silent all of daylight
Until I start to stretch & yawn.
I try to drown out the noise
And hope that they don't spawn!
I suppose it could be worse.
Frogs don't sting or bite.
I can't say I blame them
For partying all night.
Croak, Ribbit, Chirp.
The frogs, they call & burp.
Ribbit, Chirp, Croak.
They bellow from their throat.
Croak, Chirp, Ribbit.
There is no way to end it.
