When in doubt, compose a show tune

Dad's response to living with geckos, to the tune of "Master of the House" from Les Miserables:

What's that on the wall?
Why does not it fall?
Here it scurries, there it scurries;
Not a sound at all.

Look, it's bright green;
Has a high sheen;
First it's still; then its chasing
Something not quite seen.

Now it's on the ceiling;
Upside down, not reeling;
Now got something, then again;
Death blows to bugs adealing

Insecty varmits it has smited;
With other things uninvited;
Roaches too, if with it they screw;
Its value you have slighted.

So welcome friend gecko;
Will disparage you no mo;
You may go far; even be a star,
And go work for GEICO!



Pouspous the gecko will be absolutely tickled.
