Had My Fill of Phil

Yes, old Phil in Punxsutawney

            Will rise early on Groundhog Day,

            Though why we care is beyond me.

            Yes, old Phil in Punxsutawney

            Thinks he’s smart, but he’s just scrawny,

            And ain’t no weatherman, anyway.

            Yes, old Phil in Punxsutawney

            Will rise early on Groundhog Day.

            I mean, Phil is just a rodent

            Without predictive ability.

            A silly guess, it’s not cogent.

            I mean, Phil is just a rodent,

            Only his smell is really potent,

            He has no creditability.

            I mean, Phil is just a rodent

            Without predictive ability.
