I always loved the elephant

The elephant in my room

We used to have such laughs and chats

I hope he comes back soon!

 

Each day was such a riot -

oh what would happen next!

but now it's gone all quiet

and I am really vexed.

 

For there has been spring cleaning

He had to go away

And now the house is boring

Cos he’s not here to play.

 

My other toys are oh so dull

That action man and barbie

They’re sharp and hard, not cuddly

Like my best friend used to be.

 

So I think I’ll leave my new toys

And go and play in the garden

And if I never speak to them

I hope they’ll beg my pardon!

 

Be careful what you wish for

Is all I have to say

You may find that there’s no one there

Next time you want to play
