I did think this song was far too sad to be included in the piggie songbook.
But on reflection, I think we owe it to little Lilac, and piggies like her
in petshops everywhere, to include it. You may remember George the guinea
pig's father telling us how he'd seen little Lilac, obviously very ill, in a
petstore he'd gone into for food. I remember at the time I so wanted George and
his partner to buy her, but they didn't, and eventually she died, there in the
store. And as a believer in the Rainbow Bridge, it has worried me ever since
- what happens to all these piggies that never get loving slaves - those that
die in filthy breeders' cages or laboratories? I tell all mine that when
they get to The Bridge they are to round up all the piggies they can find who
have never known the love of a slave, and we will cross with them and share
our love.
So, with no apologies for making you cry, here, dedicate to Lilac and all
unloved piggies everywhere, is "Nobody's Pig", sung to the tune of similarly
sentimental "Nobody's Child".
CHORUS:
I'm nobody's pig,
I'm nobody's pig,
Weak and malnourished, I'm not very big;
No cosy pigloo, and no apple twig,
Nobody wants me, I'm nobody's pig.
CHORUS
People come for piggies, to take them for their own,
But they all seem to pass me, and I'm left here, all alone;
I know they'd like to take me, but when they see I'm ill,
They know I need to see a vet and can't afford the bill.
CHORUS
No piggie slave to hold me, and feed me when I wheek,
Sometimes I get so lonely, I just wish that I could speak;
I'd talk about my mother, and siblings that have died
Because the breeder didn't care, and how I weep inside.
CHORUS
They tell me there's a rainbow, where all good piggies go;
I hope I get there someday, but I really need to know:
As well as my dear parents, and siblings, will there be
Devoted slaves with extra love for unwanted pigs like me?
CHORUS
