Move Over Julie Andrews...
Boys and Their Things
(by me)
Snot-drops down noses -- Pulls whiskers on kittens
Pokemon medals --- 'They are gloves! They're not mittens!'
Brown paper lunch bags worn on their head like some kings
This is what happens with boys and their things
(Once) Cream colored t-shirts now covered with oodles
Of markers and dirt marks and sauce from their noodles
Wild printed bed sheets used as capes and as wings
This is what happens with boys and their things
Girls with their cooties – Boys act if they were fascists
Snowballs they throw at the girls’ noses and eyelashes
Silver white hair their moms’ grow until springs
This is what happens with boys and their things
When the one bites
When the other clings
When they’re being bad
I simply remember they're boys and have things
And then I don’t feel so mad
(And now you are going to have this tune in your head alllllll day!)

LOL! Excellent! I just heard a medley of songs from S.O.M. last night for dd's choir concert, so I was probably humming the tune while you were writing the words. ;-)
'Anonymous' in this case means Watergurl. ;-)
Very clever! Totally something I'll be humming to myself ;) You should read my dr. seuss like sarcastic poetry LOL
