Balladeer knows his bugs,
Flys, roaches and even slugs,
Say goodbye to all those pests,
That's what Balladeer does the best.

All you insects have met your match
None of your eggs will ever hatch,
He walks around and sprays your house,
Insects, rodents, occasional mouse

So watch your back Mr. Orkin Man,
There's Balladeer, wand in hand,
Killin' bugs comes first in life,
A close second he calls "wife"...

(My son saw me writin' poems for my dear dear friend "Ball-A-Deer"...and wrote this....geesch?...runs in the family ya think?)

Well, I figured someone else wrote it...there wasn't an insult in the whole thing. Your son is a class act...what is he... adopted?  

Good to see ya back, Mr. "living proof that I ain't killed all the rodents" Toerag.

and he does it with a smile!  He not only kills the mouse, he winds the clock they run up!

over the rain-green grass,
and the sun drips honey.""
