Oh that poor Mya whose bum caught on fire

There once was a girl named Mya
Whose bum caught on fire
Everybody laughed at her
Except for her best friend Cher
She yelled to her mum
I have fire on my bum
The next day was school
And she looked like a fool
She stayed home and read a book
While reacting like a sook
She chewed some gum
And cooled her bum
She had a pet cat
That looked like a rat
Oh that poor Mya whose bum caught on fire
