Misuse Of That Darn Animal

Don't wear a cat for a hat [Padfoot]

Don't wear a gnu for a shoe [Beefy ]

And wearing doves for gloves, well that [Ethetran]

Will simply not do [Anon.]

Don't use a fox for a box [archaeopteryx]

Don't tie a bear in your hair [Beefy ]

And using gophers for loafers [Grayman (The Simpsons)]

Is hardly playing fair [Ethetram]

Don't dig a hole with a sole [Beefy ]

Don't dig a rig with a pig [Kansas Sam]

And wearing lox for socks, how droll [F]

Don't give a goose to a moose [Karin]

Don't use a lamb for a tam [Irene Adler]

And making a wish on a fish [ambyr]

Or taking wool from a bull [N]

Don't use a fly as a tie [Big Andy]

Don't use a dog for a cog [F]

Haddock in the paddock or a fly in the sty [g.stroud@commaoil.com]

Would leave us all agog [Ethetran]

Don't make a stew out of glue [Big Andy]

Don't use a hake for a steak [Kansas Sam]

And that brown-sugar Foxy for epoxy [archaeopteryx]

Would be a bad mistake [Big Andy]
