I had an awful dream.

I woke up with a scream.

My friend came in,

Gave me a grin,

Then smacked me with some cream.

I love Justin Bieber.

He’s not a brown beaver.

He sings so well,

He’s hot as hell,

Now I got the fever.

I had to clean the floor.

And then I slammed the door.

Drove to a shop,

And bought a mop,

But then slipped at the store.
