The mismanaged rover

 He walked into the shop

To buy himself a bar

Of chocolate, but look

That did not get him far


He thinks he's a Lothario

But he's a leviathan of tar

Just a walking slug

Too fat for his guitar


They call him the mismanaged Rover

He's as snide as a toad run over

He's as subtle as a spoon of honey

And he'll only sing to you for money


His time it isn't long

Just a four versed song

Because his dogs howl at the moon

And he's sucked his last sweet tune


He's already out the door

Before the rain starts to pour

But his soul is a lost resort

Because all things come to nought


They call him the mismanaged Rover

He's as snide as a toad run over

He's as subtle as a spoon of honey

And he'll only sing to you for money
