When we saved you from that awful pet store

You weighed 12 ounces, no less, no more

You grew up to be so slick and so daring

And a little bit greedy, you really hated sharing

But under all that you were loving and you were sweet

With a scrawny black body,  from your head to your feet

So when the day came that we had to part ways

And god carried you off into his golden warm rays

I couldn't stop crying because you weren't mine for that long

And because you were so full of life, so playful, and so strong

I cant believe I cant hold you again or laugh at your silly ways

I cant believe these were our final days

I'm sorry I wasn't there to save you from your fate

I should have  been there sooner, I'm so sorry i was late

I love you so much, that I pray you know

And I'll never forget you, no matter where I will go

So you'll be with me until the day we meet again

I know it seem so far away, I wish I knew when

So from now until then, you'll be locked inside my mind

Because I loved you so much Mogley, your were truly one of a kind
