To All the Toys I’ve Loved Before

Asa, I’m sorry I killed your toy, Mr. Alligator.  But must you be so overly dramatic and sing a song about him?  He’s not even dead really, just a lot thinner without all the fluff inside of him.  Pretend he just went on some extreme diet.  If anything you should be thanking me for teaching you important predator skills.  Now please stop singing your version of Willie Nelson’s To All the Girls I’ve Loved Before!

To All the Toys I’ve Loved Before

To all the toys I’ve loved before

Who no longer squeak anymore

I’m glad you came along

I dedicate this song

To all the toys I’ve loved before

To all the teething toys I’ve chewed

I’m sorry if my puppy teeth hurt you

Thanks for helping me to grow

You taught me everything I know

To all the toys I’ve loved before

Chuck Billy’s wolf instincts are always growling

And every time I tried to play

The wolf in him continued growling

And Chuck Billy just carried you away

To all the toys I’ve chased before

I enjoyed playing with you outdoors

Our countless games of fetch

were certainly the best

To all the toys I’ve loved before

To all the toys destroyed by Chuck Billy

I don’t know why he acts so silly

These toys were my good friends

I loved them to the end

To all the toys I’ve loved before

Chuck Billy’s wolf instincts are always growling

And every time I tried to play

The wolf in him continued growling

And Chuck Billy just carried you away

To all the toys I’ve loved before

Who no longer squeak anymore

I’m glad you came along

I dedicate this song

To all the toys I’ve loved before!

RIP Mr. Alligator. You were a dear friend.
