Roused by the crowd, he peeks from his bed.
Seeking sleep, he scowls:
"What's with all this fuss? I'll call the cops."
He shouted from his hole. Then he glances at the wall.
"February 2nd," he mutters.
"They're waiting on you ole Phil. Give 'em a show"
He saunters in quite smugly. Taps his feet in circles.
No one notices. Will he see his shadow?
A young girl asks her dad.
"Hey I'm just warming up.
"People want to know if I'll see my shadow,
"But I'd like to break into show business
"Can I audition on American Idol?
"Punxsutawney Phil. World famous groundhog,
"By the way, I hate that name
"Just call me Phil folks."
The crowd stared at him blankly.
"You're not worth the trouble, " he shouted
And the groundhog strutted away
Skipped and dodged the crowd
Held his thumb up by the highway
And hitchhiked to Hollywood.
