Desserted

I like to go out hunting

With my dad and Uncle Bruce.

We seek the grandest trophy -

the elusive Chocolate Moose!

We’ll hike the steepest mountainside,

We’ll stake out every spruce!

We won’t give up! We won’t give in!

We’ll nab the Chocolate Moose!

You can have the deer and elk, my friends,

Or waste your time on goose.

We’ve set our sights on bigger game -

We want the Chocolate Moose!

We don’t have any firearms,

But that is no excuse!

We’ve got our spoons and whipping cream!

Now, where’s that Chocolate Moose?
