Goodbye, Clyde!

Goodbye, Clyde,
The nosiest of noses.
And when he found that scent,
It was never for the roses,
But always for the stinkiest of hides
So we could always say, “There goes Clyde.”

Goodbye, Clyde!
Who else will keep Toonces on his toes
Or correct him with that loud bellow.
And even though he'll trip you on the stairs,
Deep inside we do believe he cares.
For in your cage he'll sit inside,
As if to say, “Goodbye, Clyde.”

Goodbye, Clyde!
AnnieBelle must've been your only dog friend,
‘Cause when it comes to other dogs, you'd never pretend
That their obnoxious, stinky bodies didn't vex you dearly.
And when they crossed your path you expressed it clearly
That Ms. Belle was the only one you could abide.
And so with heavy hearts, we say, “Goodbye, Clyde.”

Goodbye, Clyde!
You always fill our hearts with joy--
Whether man, women, girl, or boy.
You were always a sucker for affection
Even if you weren't sure of its direction.
In our hearts, you'll always be by our side

Long after we say, “Goodbye, Clyde!”
