I painted the bleachers-- what a messy job.
I painted the steps and bumped into Bob.
I painted the yellow lines-- boy they look fine!
I painted myself and the library shelves.
I cleaned the walls-- gosh they were tall.
And along came a big ball and messed up it all.
I painted my friend-- she got mad
I said I was sorry-- boy was she glad!
I painted the hopscotch-- it took awhile
After I was done, I felt like I had run a mile.
