I Am An Opossum


I Am An Opossum
By Lord R.e. Taylor

I am not a rat
I have never been a rat
I will never be a rat
A rat is a rat
I am an opossum
A good animal to have around
I eat menacing pests
Never catching those nasty diseases
So, if you see me just say ‘hi’
And if you can just let me walk on by
I just hope that you remember
I am not a rat
I have never been a rat
I will never be a rat
A rat is a rat
I am an opossum
And I am your friend
