Mom I am

I am mom
Mom I am

That Mom-I-am!
That Mom-I-am!
I do not like that Mom-I-am!

Do you like a three-year-old?
I do not like them, Mom-I-am.
Now you’ve been told,
I do not like a three-year-old.

Would you take them here or there?
I would not take them here or there.
I would not take them anywhere.
I do not like a three-year-old.
I do not like them, now you’ve been told.

Would you like one in your lap?
Would you like one with nap?

I do not like them in my lap.
I do not like them with a nap.
I do not like them here or there.
I do not like one anywhere.
I do not like a three-year-old.
I do not like them, now you’ve been told.

Would you take one on a dare?
Would you take one to the fair?
Not on a dare.
Not to the fair.
Not in my lap.
Not with a nap.
I would not take one here or there.
I would not take one anywhere.
I would not like a three-year-old
I do not like one, now you’ve been told.

Would you? Could you? To the store?
Take one! Take one!
They are sure not to bore!
I would not, could not, to the store.

You may enjoy one.
You will see.
You may enjoy one at the sea.

I would not, could not at the sea.
Not at the store. You let me be.

I do not like one on a dare.
I do not like one at the fair.
I do not like one in my lap.
I do not like one with a nap.
I do not take one here or there.
I do not take one anywhere.
I do not like a three-year-old
I do not like one, now you’ve been told.


A train! A train!
A train! A train!
Could you, would you, on a train?
Not on a train! Not at the sea!
Not to a store! Mom! Let me be!

I would not, could not, on a dare.
I could not, would not, to the fair.
I will not take one in my lap.
I will not take one with a nap.
I will not take one here or there.
I will not take one anywhere.
I do not like a three-year-old
I do not like one, now you’ve been told.

Say! To the park. Here at the park!
Would you, could you, to the park?
I would not, could not, in the park.

Would you, could you, in the rain?

I would not, could not, in the rain.
Not in the park. Not on a train.
Not to the store. Not at the sea.
I do not like one, Mom, you see.
Not in my lap. Not on a dare.
Not with a nap. Not to the fair.
I will not take one here or there.
I will not take one anywhere!

You do not like a three-year-old?
I do not like one, now you’ve been told.


Could you, would you, on a bike?
I would not, could not, on a bike!

Would you, could you, on a hike?

I could not, would not, on a bike.
I will not, will not, on a hike.
I will not take one in the rain.
I will not take one on a train.
Not in the park. Not at the sea!
Not to the store! You let me be!
I will not take one to the fair.
I will not take one on a dare.
I do not like one in my lap.
I do not like one with a nap.
I do like one here or there
I do no like one ANYWHERE!

I do not like a three-year-old!
I do not like one, now you’ve been told.

You do not like them.
So you say.
Take one! Take one!
And you may,
Take one and you may, I say.

Mom!
If you will let me be, I will take one.
You will see.

Say! I like this three-year-old!
I do! I like one, I am sold…
and I would take one on a hike.
And I would take one on a bike.
And I will take one in the rain.
And to the park. And on a train.
And to the store. And to the sea.
She is so good, so good, you see!
So I will take one to the fair.
And I will take one on a dare.
And I will take one in my lap.
And I will take one with a nap.
And I will take one here and there.
Say! I will take one ANYWHERE!
I do so like my three-year-old!
Thank you! Thank you, I am sold.
