Don’t Take Me With You To The Store

This particular piece came about as the result of noticing more and more often people, mostly women, bringing their dogs into grocery and retail stores.  Once inside, it's as though these dog owners became oblivious to their surroundings, allowing the furry little charges to wander freely and use and abuse these establishments with urine, food scraps, and droppings.  Yes, very disgusting.
(See my other piece pertaining to Service Animals, Companion Animals, and Pets.
Once I figure out how, I'll upload an audio clip so that you can hear and enjoy it.

To all of those puppies and doggies out there whose mommies and daddies should be embarrassed walking us through the supermarket, this is for you.

Don’t take me with you to the store,
As you talk on your phone, it’s me you ignore.
No, don’t take me with you to the store,
I’m happy to stay home and sleep upon the floor!

No, don’t take me with you when you go,
Those are places that I simply do not know.
So, don’t take me with you as you leave,
I’ll gladly stay at home and give you some reprieve!

Don’t take me with you to the store,
The aisles are so long, that I get bored.
No, don’t take me with you to the store,
I’d rather stay at home and practice how to snore!

Please, don’t take me with you down the deli aisle,
You’ll be the only one wearing a smile;
Don’t leave me outside, or trapped inside your car,
I’ll just stay at home and laugh at Jamie Farr!
Yay, Klinger!!
I’ll just stay at home and laugh at Jamie Farr! Hey!
