This judge is about to have the wool pulled over his eyes, in a scene from Do Unto Otters, written by Grant and Benjamin Anderson, published by Pemmican Publications.

The evidence was quickly revealed

That sentence would not be repealed

The jury’s verdict came quickly

The cow was found guilty

All because the dirty pig squealed

We thought Grandma was a bit of a nut

It was proven when she got a bad cut

The old girl got a scare

When she found her teeth on a chair

By biting herself on the butt

A daring young astronaut Jose

Loved floating in space all day

Zero gravity was astronomical

His friends found him comical

And gave him the nickname “No Weigh”
