My Deer

You are the cat’s pajamas.
You are the dog’s bow tie,
the extra L in llamas,
the owl’s nighttime eye.
You are the sow’s silk purse,
the horse’s lucky shoe.
You taught the bird to curse,
now he’s a cockatoo.
You are the rabbit’s foot.
You make the goats all dance.
You make ’em all stay put
with just a sidelong glance.
You make the mink’s coat silky.
You make the pigeons coo.
You make the cows all milky.
Yes, I go wild for you.
