/// He was painted for free, a good “score,”
but a factor you ought not ignore
is Niels Høyen’s greed
for kickbacks. Indeed,
now his left hand is reaching for more.
/// I can’t listen to Niels any more!
He’ll drone on and I’m liable to snore.
Teaching “Physics” or “Art,”
dull and dry from the start.
There’s a reason they call him Niels “Bore.”
Cruella’s grandfather, Callous DeVil, in his signature black lab puppy coat, weighing the options of letting his hair grow. “Poodle skirt” or “Lab coat” — the de Vils have always been trend setters. Coming soon: “Husky pants.”
/// You may think skinning dogs isn’t right.
The DeVil family’s not that uptight.
Many people wear fur;
puppy’s what they prefer.
Like their hair, it’s not all black and white.
/// Could the reason you’d boycott a suit
made from puppies be ‘cause they are cute?
Minks and foxes are, too.
Check ‘em out in a zoo.
