Day Off

I want to have a day off
With my mum and dad
I wish they were less serious
I wish they were more glad
I want them both to sit down
And do something with me
I want my mum and dad
To be a little bit more free

Why can't they just stop rushing round
And round the whole day long
When I sing "Row, row, row your boat"
Why won't they sing along?
I want to have a day off
And play a game or two
Or maybe do a puzzle
And then mess it up with you.

I wish mum you would put down
Her stupid mobile phone
Whenever you check FaceBook
You leave me all alone
And dad you're always saying
You've got so much to do
Why can't we have a day off
Just mum and me and you?

Come on mum and come on dad
I'm growing up so fast
And soon my little childhood
Will just be in the past
Please can we have a day off?
Where we can laugh and talk
Or maybe read a book or two
Or go out for a walk

It's all I really want
And it's all we really need
Just a tiny little day off
Would be wonderful indeed.

Spelin

Eye dont car mutch four spelin
It dusnt bover me
if u no wot yor redin
ore undrstan u c
its juste ay stuupd
wast ov tyme
lyk punktuuachn toe
ey dont fink wee nead it
itz just ay lowd ov poo

I don't care much for spelling
It doesn't bother me,
If you know what you're reading
Or understand, you see?
It's just a stupid
Waste of time,
Like punctuation too.
I don't think we need it,
It's just a load of poo.

Toys

I used to have a car
With a remote control
I used to have an Action Man
With a plastic soul.

I used to have a game,
Where you had to trap a mouse,
I used to have some bits of wood,
With which I built a house

I used to have a load of toys
But very few were good
I think my parents bought them
Just because they thought they should.

I had a million plastic things
That never lasted long,
I had so many stupid toys
That broke or just went wrong.

I had boxes full of batteries
But all of them were flat
I had toys that needed energy,
But none of them had that.

I had a little motorbike,
I had a laughing clown,
But after half an hour
They had both just broken down.

I had two boxing robots
Standing in a ring
But if you played them on your own
They didn't mean a thing.

I got piles of toys for Christmas
I got toys for birthdays too
But all of them meant nothing
When they were compared to you.

You see I had a brother
A brother to help me out
Though sometimes we would argue,
And sometimes we would shout.

But he was more fun than any toys
So I didn't really care
If my things they got broken,
Then I knew that he would share.

Yes I've forgotten all my toys
Most ended in the bin,
And I don't really care about
Which dump they ended in.

But my brother he was always
There when we were bored
And we found something to make
Or we went out and explored

Yes he was there and he'll be there
Until the very end
Yes my great big big brother
Will always be my bestest friend.

Mummy said.

Daddy always farts in bed,

That's what my poor mummy said.

So now to sleep she always goes,

With a clothes peg on her nose.

Smile.

The smile you have is so much fun,
Make sure you share it with someone.

Thoughts

If I am sad,
For a short while,
I make good thoughts
And then I smile.

After Dark

In the playground after dark
There's a man called Mr Spark,
He's got television eyes
And a dog that's in disguise.

In the playground late at night
There's a man called Mr White,
He's got eyes of burning red
And a saucepan on his head.

In the playground in the day
There's a man called Mr May,
He's got eyes as black as snow
And a trumpet on his toe.

In the playground you can see
All the things you want to be,
So close your eyes and try to find,
All the playgrounds in your mind.
