A Book by a Bug I set out to write a book by a bug An ant or a spider or cockroach or slug But since I知 not a bug you see I知 not an ant or fly or flee I had to crawl in the mind of a critter To tell you this tale in a way I saw fitter A tale about people big and small Old and young Short and tall A tale about toasters and trashcans that talk And lemons that laugh and toes that walk All of these things in this little old house With a little old man and a matching mouse And a tiny King with a giant ring A flower that grows from the drain in the shower What痴 that you say? This is no truth! You can not tell this to the youth! I kid you not! So listen well To every tale this bug will tell So lend your ears and if you do You値l know for sure these things are true And now without further ado I値l introduce my friend to you Down the steps and through the door And down the steps another floor You値l find him if you only look The bug in the basement will read you his book! Coming Soon! Where an Ant is a kid's best friend!
