Magical Me

There once was a girl called magical me,
She thought she could climb the tallest tree,
She tried and tried but she didn’t start,
She’d rather have gone to Megamart.

There once was a girl called magical me,
She thought she could fly across the sea,
But she only jumped 2 feet or so,
And down she went, way down low.

There once was a girl called magical me,
She thought she could drink a hot cup of tea,
But boy was that a big mistake,
She couldn’t even taste mum’s cake.

There once was a girl called magical me,
She climbed one of the tallest trees,
She flew over the deep blue sea,
And she drank a very hot cup of tea,
The one and only magical me.
