I have a lovely step brother
The best I've ever had.
I step on him when things go wrong
And I don't feel so bad.

I have a mean brother
And also another
They both are such a pain.
Why doesn't my mother
Sell one or the other
And send them away on a train?

My mom is in Australia
I only have my dad,
And that is really terrible
His cooking's very bad.

I wrote my mom to help me
When I didn't know what to do.
She sent my dad a recipe
For Australian kangaroo.

My daddy tried to cook it
But had to use a cat.
He thought it tasted really good
But I'm not getting fat.

I hope my mom comes home soon,
Before I have a fit
Cause daddy's making cooking
That would make a vulture sick.

I have a dog named Shadow.
I have a fish named Spot.
You may think that's pets enough;
But I think it is not.
Another fish is Pac Man.
Another's name is Pop.
And now you may think I am done,
But there is still a lot.
My rabbit's name is Maggie;
But just you wait and see,
She's going to have some babies:
Maybe Twenty-Three.
My tadpole's name just isn't
Because he hasn't one.
My snails are also nameless
But they're still lots of fun.
One gerbel's name is Frisky
But really I have two.
The other's name is Midnight.
My pets are quite a few.
My mother and my father
I drive them quite insane
For with my cages all about
They think my pets a pain.
But still they say they love me
And I think this is true.
Cause if they didn't love me
They'd send me to a zoo.

My dad does not like Spot.
He wishes he was not.
He wishes we had got
A Not Spot.
But I like Spot a lot.
I don't wish he was not.
I think it would be sad!
If we need a not,
Let's make it Dad!

Lazy Mary, will you get up?
Will you get up, will you get up?
Lazy Mary, will you get up,
So early in the morning.

No, dear mother, I won't get up,
I won't get up, I won't get up,
No, dear mother, I won't get up,
So early in the morning.

What'll you give me for my for my breakfast?
For my breakfast, for my breakfast?
A little bowl of bread and milk,
So early in the morning.

Then, dear mother, I won't get up,
I won't get up, I won't get up,
Then, dear mother, I won't get up,
So early in the morning.

A nice young man with rosey cheeks,
With rosey cheeks, with rosey cheeks
Then, dear mother, I will get up,
So early in the morning
