Squirrels-parody of Girls by The Beastie Boys-Shirley

Squirrels,

All we really are is Squirrels,
We're being hunted we are Squirrels,
We are appealing we are Squirrels,

We want to gather nuts,
But, people splatter our guts,
When they're on a country drive,
It isn't easy to survive,

Back in the other day,
I saw a squirrel get blown away,
They served him on a dinner tray,
They baked him into a soufflé,
Squirrel season opens up today,
If you're a squirrel run away,
I don't know what else I should say,
Please call the A.S.P.C.A.

Fur coats from us are made,
Fur is nice but, I like suede,
They scrape our fur off with a blade,
And never bother with first aid,
We squirrels really like to play,
And we like to catch some rays,
Please don't kill us this we pray,
We're cute and harmless anyway,

Squirrels!,
We're not delicious,
Squirrels!,
We are not raccoons,
Squirrels!,
Don't live in palm trees,
Squirrels!,
Or in your bathrooms!

Squirrels!,
That's all we really are is squirrels,
Isn't it fine I am a squirrel,
Please help and save us,
We are squirrels!,

I wanna whip out my, squirrel!
Squirrels!,
Squirrels!,
Squirrels!,
Squirrels!,
Squirrels!,
Squirrels!,
Squirrels!,
Squirrels!,
Squirrels!,
Squirrels!,
SQUIRRELS!

Yes, afraid this one was a bit underexposed. I still get that with my camera sometimes. I had it set, got several photos and don't ya know the one I liked the best was way to dark, I had to brighten it at least this much to see the little guy. Glad you spotted him. :o)

Brent if you and your wife are ever in my neck of the woods (along Shepard Road/Mississippi River Blvd area) You should come see our squirrels. They are so cute and tame. I just had a good feeling if I put something on a tree they would have to come take a look. LOL It worked! I got 4 different shots. They will eat from your hands.
