Ramses

Ramses, Ramses, Ramses, Ramses,
I'm begging of you please don't kill my dog!
Ramses, Ramses, Ramses, Ramses,
Please don't kill him just because you can!

Your hunting is beyond compare,
With flaming pelt of reddish hair,
With vicious claws and teeth of deadly bite.
Your pounce is like a stroke of death;
Your snarl is harsh like demon's breath.
And he cannot escape from you, Ramses.

He dreams about you in his sleep.
There's nothing I can do to keep
From crying when he whines in fear, Ramses.
And I can fully understand,
How you could quickly kill my friend,
But you don't know what he means to me, Ramses.

Ramses, Ramses, Ramses, Ramses,
I'm begging of you please don't kill my dog.
Ramses, Ramses, Ramses, Ramses,
Please don't kill him just because you can.

You could have your choice of food,
But I think it would be quite rude,
If you were to kill my dog, Ramses.
I had to have this talk with you.
My happiness depends on you.
And whatever you decide to do, Ramses.

Ramses, Ramses, Ramses, Ramses,
I'm begging of you please don't kill my dog.
Ramses, Ramses, Ramses, Ramses,
Please don't kill him just because you can.
Ramses, Ramses
