                                                           My Game

                     We pretend and play a game                   home,

                     When Sid calls out                me

                     I say, ‘Here I am, brother!

                     Far away, and                the sea!’

                     Or I say ‘I’m              the box’

                     Or else, ‘Walking out                the door’

                     ‘I’m             the table’

                     Or ‘I’m              the fan.’

                     I say ‘I’m right here, Sid,
                     Here, right next               the fish.


                     The one that is swimming
                     Around               his dish.’

                     ‘I could be jumping               fences,

                     Or off a tall tree,

                     I could be climbing               a wall,

                     Or playing               Bruce Lee.’

                     I say, ‘I’m right here, Sid!

                     I’m hiding              the door,

                     Someone may come in,

                     And see us               the floor!’
