AHH! My feet are on fire.
Sizzle POP! The sand is so hot.
Quick, put my flip flops on,
Before my feet burn and turn as red as a rose.
Waves, waves crashing on the sandy shore,
I'd better run fast, that's for sure.
Ouch ouch! I stood on a shell.
It was so sharp, it made me yell.
Ouch ouch! That really hurt,
Get me a band aid now, please Bert.
I saw a rainbow sparkly fish swim by and I thought,
My, oh my.
How pretty is that?
I'd like to put her in my hat and take her home.
I'm sure she will love that!
But my, oh my, I must not take her because look the Police.
