Balladeer's out-killin' bugs,
In housewive's cubboards and under rugs.
Chasin' mice and other critters,
Like fleas and termites, maybe chiggers.

His price is high unless the lady,
Has great big breasts and legs quite shapely.
Then the price goes way way down,
If she's in a sheer nightgown.

Under houses, beneath those sinks,
Sprayin' poison while he thinks;
"This gal's a fox, why should she pay?
We'll put this bill on "lay-a-way!"

Then when his "job" is finally done,
And her charges equal "none,"
He'll smile and say, "Why thank you ma'am,
Can I show you our daily plan?"

It comes complete with guarantee,
Or else I'll "come" again for free.
I guess that's not much different than,
What I did today, just sign here ma'am."

Biz'ness must be booming
Or the bug man would be looming
To have his retaliation
For this latest indignation.
Forgive me now if I blunder
But I can't much help but wonder
This "work" may give him lots of thrills
But how does 'Deer pay his own bills?

I'm sure he's contemplating his retaliation...all in due time, Toe. Can't wait to see it myself. hehehe
Are you quite sure you'll be leaving us? You know, it just won't be the same.
For what it's worth, I wish you luck in all your endeavors.
