Round-eyed squirrel in yonder tree, tree squirrel stealing seed from me, how come you to this seedy store where only birds have come before? I've watched your antics, roguish shrew. Poor Daedalus could learn from you. From limb to leafy limb you sail by stretching out your claws and tail. Then head first, down a single wire, till plop, you land on top the spire and pilfer from my winged friends the food on which they all depend. You raid, non-stop where birdies flit. Your furry tum's an empty pit. Why, little birdies barely find a single morsel left behind. Round-eyed squirrel in yonder tree, tree squirrel stealing feed from me, next time you raid my seedy store I may just settle up the score!
