FAMILY NOISES.

[by Sophie Wishart].


Zoom, zoom goes the car
Ra, ra goes my guitar.
Clip, clip go the scissors,
Snip, snip goes my hair.
While I scream and run to fresh air.

Ar, ar my brother screams
Why do I have such awful dreams.
Yum, yum says my mum
As she eats her last crumb.

Bye, bye says my dad
My boss is going to be so awfully mad.
Stay, stay I try to say
To my friends that don’t want to play.
