It’s time to take your bath Eli
(“Humph! No way! No how!”)
“I’ve got better things to do
Right now!”
“My finger painting portrait,
Needs some paint here and there.
And I’m not finished yet,
Tossing sand into the air,
That spare tire over there
Needs to be moved out on the lawn,
I can get it by myself you know
I’m really very strong,
Now then, I’ve got to catch that toad
That just came hopping cross the road
I’m going to add him to my frog collection
And my puppy Max (just like mommy and dad)
Wants some of my affection
My matchbox cars need roads to drive on
Houses and a railway too
There’s just no time to take a bath
I’ve got better things to do!
Like running and jumping
And skipping to a beat
Eww, what’s this I stepped in?
Max’s poo is on my feet!
(Uck!)
I would’ve been done with my portrait
If that frog hadn’t gotten away
Now my colors are all mixed up
And there’s sand all over the place!
