Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson for May 04, 2018

Do you swear to tell the truth to the best of your ability as a foul smellin’ back stabbin’ pirate?

cannot wait to find out how Marigold’s testimony goes

This is when you might want a Unicorn-English to human-English dictionary.

Maybe she meant to say “yay”?

The unicorn version of the old joke: “Order in the court!”

“I’ll have a bale of hay!”

Got a date a little later

when the moon is on the trail

with the cutest triple gaiter

my pretty little filly with the pony tail

Got a bag of oats to call with

Hay I’ll bring her by the bale

want to share a double stall with

the pretty little filly with the pony tail

Gee, if she would just agree

she’d be mine today

but no matter when I ask

the answer’s always “neigh neigh neigh neigh”

If she’d name that day of wedlock

I would be there without fail

Got the ring made for her fetlock

the pretty little filly with the pony tail!

Neigh is the sound a horse makes sometimes instead of a whinny. So it may mean yes!!

Unicorns are not horses. But for the sake of the joke she had to neigh whinny.

“Do you swear to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, so help you God?”

Marigold: Since I do not believe in this “god” you speak of, I have to say “neigh”.
