Watching the dog show. The beagle won the first round.

He's a government sniffer,
An official agent, a customs whiffer.

Some folks bring fruit to the USA
That might not be safe, the regulations say.
His job is to stop that contraband fruit.
He's equipped with a standard-issue beagle snoot.

He's the only cop on the customs detail
Who's always friendly, and wags his tail,
But who'd have thought a sweet dog like that
Would turn out to be a government rat?

He works real cheap -- just room and board
And a doggy treat for his reward,
And he's 'most always right -- now who would differ
With a government sniffer?

Over a Congressional quibble,
On funding the CBP.
Because without a donor,
he'll have no dinner,
On a diet imposed by Boehner.
