No, not that vase! Put it down!!
Oh, why bother, your smirk says it all.
I'll thank you for not taking those keys,
My parents really wouldn't be too pleased.
Those fish aren't for experiments, idiot!
They're "goldfish". Have you not heard of them?
No, the chandlier isn't for sale, alright?
Just shut up for now and I may not bite.
Why's the ceiling dripping, pray tell.
I'll just run upstairs and check.
Ok, who left the bathtub taps open?
Someone call the bathroom men. [Plumbers are they called?]
At this rate, I might just die.
What's worse is to have to come up with a lie
for why the wallpaper seems to have disappeared
and why the dog's hair is soaked in curd.

omg, this is like the day that "Sally and me" let the Cat in the Hat in the house! Yeah, I think hosting a bad guest or whole party of them can be pretty nerve-wracking, which your poem humorfully demonstrates - poor goldfish!
Thanks!
