Ode To A Marmot lyrics

Brought up by a fool

Looking to be loved

That an animal might be

Now a plague to others

What well-meaning curse

Has been unleashed

Amongst the others too

A pestilence on all

Destructor of crops

Damaging fence and soil

To be a parasite instead

Expecting to be fed

What is this grave error

That people have done

To create a population

In a world resourceless

They will not go away

To a land of sustenance

Here is, will be only death

Not all men must share

Cute and cuddly to ignorant

Sharp teeth and claws

A foul temper close kept

A threat to true denizens

Their holes, foot traps

To injure those who belong

They eat their food as well

To starve others in winter

While they sleep in burrows

Stomachs unabatedly will growl

Foolish deeds bring pestilence

That remorse cannot remedy
