The mom said “Good night.”
The kids said “Good riddance.”
What now…oh yeah…
Watch the sheep and the fence.
“Not!” said the kids
as they jumped out of bed
Off went the sheets
Up came the pillows
And out came the feathers
in billows and billows.
“Knock it off!” said the mom
slamming open the door.
“Not one little peep,
or you’ll sleep on the floor.”
It hurt them a lot.
You could tell by each face,
for they fought and they fought.
They didn’t care
if they slept on the floor.
“Big deal” Marty said
throwing pillows some more.
The mom hit the door
in a thunderous rage.
“Now don’t you wish that
you would’ve obeyed.”
“Smack,” went the sheets.
“Whack,” went the pillows.
The mom was part now;
she was right in the middle.
Then in a flash
Marty jumped on her back
Then Tommy hopped on
and picked up the slack.
“We’ve got her now,”
they thought in their heads.
The next thing they knew
they were back in their bed,
could they move, not a bit.
The mom left the room
with a grin on her face.
But still both the kids
just lay there amazed.
They both tried to think
about how this could be.
But they now had no choice
so they both went to sleep.
