My imaginary friends are fantastic
They all live in my bedroom.
Floppy, the fish, calls dibs on the floor,
But Sergeant Teddy guards the door.
He thinks he is the toughest of them all
But really I am not too sure’
Princess Perfect doesn’t sleep
Because it disturbs her to mess up her sheets.
Kaylee the koala sleeps high in the curtain,
And nobody dares to disturb him.
My imaginary boyfriend, he sleeps in the attic,
Because when dad gets home, things get dramatic.
Oh what a lucky girl am I!
Fantastic friends under a deep blue sky.
Life really is fantastic!
