THE OWL AND THE PUSSYCAT ... AND HOWLING DOGS
(with apologies to lovers of the poem)

News Item:  Trump and Putin meet in Helsinki with the press sniffing at their heels.

We meet because we trust ...
But not enough that we don't verify ...
Stop!  Stop!  You traitor!  You traitor to all cats ...
You traitor to all.
Look at them howl.
Look at them howl.
They have simply gone nuts.
They have simply gone nuts.


He's got something on him ...
Oh, he's greedy for money ...
The owl's too smart for a stupid cat.
Look at who's stupid.
Look at who's stupid.
I have claws hidden under my hat.
And mine are longer though I won't use 'em.
Neither will I.
Neither will I.


We will dance together you and I.
For the sake of our peoples you and I.
Even if their interests we kill 'em.
Those howling press dogs.
Those howling press dogs.
Even if their interests we kill 'em.
Even if their interests we kill 'em.
