<br>(parody of "Spanish Flea" by Herb Alpert & The Tijuana Brass)<br>It`s good to be a Spanish flea.<br>The Spanish dogs all scratch at me.<br>I make my home in a spaniel<br>Called Jose or Manuel<br>Or Juan,<br>And I wouldn`t put you on.<br>My summer place is some great dane,<br>In Barcelona, northern Spain.<br>And though it rains in July,<br>I keep dry way up high<br>`Cause the rain<br>Falls mainly in the plain.<br>Ah, but in the wintertime,<br>I find a cozy saint bernard.<br>Up the Spanish Alps we climb,<br>Complete with anti-freeze,<br>More brandy, please.<br>I`ve got a sweetheart flea, cute kid.<br>Lives on a beagle near Madrid.<br>If she can sublet her beagle<br>I`ll make her my legal<br>First wife,<br>And we`ll live a dog`s life.<br>But if she refuses me,<br>I`m gonna shout, "Who cares!"<br>And move somewheres.<br>Perchance I`ll fly to southern France,<br>Where any flea can find romance.<br>I`ll pack my kit and caboodle<br>And find me a poodle<br>And dance<br>`Scuse me, Rover, which way`s France?<br>sallysally@usa.net
