I went to the dairy,
To buy me a cat
And I saw a man
With a horse for a hat.

The light changed
And I crossed the whale,
But was cut-off abruptly,
By a bear on a scale.

When I finally entered
The butcher shop,
My ferret escaped
And ran off with a mop.

I asked for a kitten,
While just out of my sight
Two emus with mohawks
Were starting a fight.

Now I am not joking,
No nonsense at all,
I got a real kitten
to take home from the mall.

I left for my home
With the cat in my pants,
And passed a policeman
Arresting a dance.

I crossed the whale
One last time,
Turned into the desert,
Avoided a mine.

Finally freedom!
I made it at last,
The mine behind me
Threw sand with a blast.

I turned the knob
And walked out the door,
My imagination
Is never a bore.
