Ollie is my puppy's nameâ??he's made of cloth and stuffed with foam.
He's a rambling dog and oh, so hard to find!
â??Mum,â? I say, â??I can't find Ollie!
I've his dinner and he's late!�
â??Well, the last time I saw Ollie
He was by the garden gate.�
Ollie often plays a game of hide and seek when he gets bored.
He's a clever dog and knows just where to hide!
â??Mum,â? I say, â??have you seen Ollie?
Now he's hid himself from me!�
â??Well, the last time I saw Ollie
He was in the beechnut tree.�
Ollie sometimes likes some time and space to be all by himself.
He's a pensive dog and needs his privacy.
â??Mum,â? I call, â??I'm short one Ollie!
And it's nearly time for bed!�
â??Well, the last time I saw Ollie
He was in the old tool shed.�
Ollie has a silly way of making accidents occur.
He's a clumsy dog, I can't keep him in line.
â??Mum,â? I say, â??the fault was Ollie's,
I am not the one to blame!�
â??Well, the next time I see Ollie
I'll say he should be ashamed!�
Ollie often spends his nights with me all cozy in my bed.
He's a cuddly dog when we're tucked up real tight.
â??Mum,â? I say, â??I love my Ollie,â?
As the Sandman comes in sight.
But my Mum just kisses both of us
And then turns out the light.
