Ferret Prison Blues

Some times this institution; will drive you round the bend
Don't think this persecution is ever gonna end
Busted for possesion but it wasn't drugs
When I think of my confession, it makes my shoulders shrug

When we were in the pet store, my wife she told me. "Pat,
Don't you get a ferret, you can always get a cat."
But I bought 'em out in Reno, because I knew I could
And my neighbour blew the whistle, Just like I thought he would

I bet there's ferret owners, folks with lots of class
Drinking cups a coffee filtered through a civet's ass
I knew I took my knife out, tried to defend my rights.
The cops would try to jail me, because they don't like fights

When they free from this prison, when they let me out of hooch
I think I'll go and get me a friendly little pooch
And when I take my prozac, I'll take the drug store kind
Too many folks that know me, think that I've lost my mind
