Monday's Child

Hurry, Doctor, hurry
The time is going fast
Hurry, Doctor, hurry
My puppy needs a cast

Yes, I've done what I can do
I'm even wearing my hat
But, you see, our faithful dog
Has been injured by the cat!

I tried to do my best
To wrap his wounds just so
But really, Doctor, really
He needs your help, I know

So when you get a chance
But as quickly as can be
Please bring up your doctor's kit
(Oh, and thanks so much Daddy)
