Taking tea with a tiger
Watch for the claws!
They chip the teapot
When he pours
Just one more crack
And the thing will break!
I'll have to pour
For the teapots sake
He doesn't take sugar
That's a good thing of course
For he can't hold a teaspoon
With those paws
Forget the cutlery
Look what he's done!
Retractable claws
Are much better fun
Ten sarnies at once
It's one of his tricks
Afterwards he uses them
As toothpicks
Tea with a tiger
Comes recommended
Just don't call him Tony
He gets offended
And remember that tigers
Don't know etiquette
You've avoided the claws
There's the teeth yet...
