Bad habits


from the ABC set Mary had a little limb...and other silly things.

I don’t give a jot if you can see the snot,
Hanging from my nose like a vine.
My bogies are my own, so would you please not moan
If I’m picking, rolling, flicking all the time.

I might scratch my bum, then maybe suck my thumb,
Or even blow my nose into my sleeve.
You may say that this is lewd and really rather rude,
But if you don’t like it you can always leave.

I’m always belching from my tummy and poop-parping from my bummy,
So often it could be a full time job.
Everybody has bad habits, even little bunny rabbits,
Including you so stop being such a snob!
