Glockenglug

what you see down there on the rug
that thing you think is just a bug
is actually a glockenglug
a harmless little goony lug

glockenglugs, they live in rugs
of pile, or shag, or hoop
they're very tidy, very neat
and go outside to poop

there is a downside, never fear
glockenglugs, et al, drink beer
they'll raid your 'fridge late at night
and drink until they all get tight

and then, en masse, they'll run amok
making sounds just like a duck
to wake you up at half past two
crazy drunk and full of brew

stay cool, my friend, and do not stray
too long, or get too far away
glockenglug will not go home
I fear he's here to stay
