IN THE MORNING EARLY

 What's the matter with today

Why you looking GLUMP that way?

If you were me

You'd be able to see

There's a big black cave

With your mouth ought to be

And the tongue that used to talk

Has suddenly begun to squawk

Won't your tummy

      Touch your toes?

Is your finger stuck

      Inside your nose?

Won't your eyelids

      Glue down tight?

Can't your mouth

      Turn up just right?

Don't you know

That great big frown

It's just a smile

Turned upside down?

You feel BLUE

Your tummy's GREEN

That scowl's the BLACKest

             thing I've seen

You're so mad

You're seeing RED

Way up there inside your head

There's just one way

To kick that feeling

Go up and skip

Across the ceiling!

Or better yet to tell the truth

You should be dancing on the roof

One GREAT BIG St-r-retch

       A yaw-n-n-n

Good grief!

That's fixed at all --

       You fell asleep!
