A Manatee Sneezed On Me
When we were on vacation Down in
Florida last spring My brother
said go get your bathing suit A family of
manatees Is swimming
by the dock They’re
gentle and little ones are
cute My mom said
it was okay So my dad
said okay too I paddled
over to them on my raft Suddenly my
head was wet with something like shampoo I yelled out as everybody laughed A manatee
sneezed on me… a manatee sneezed on me You might
think that it’s funny It’s not The
manatees had come to drink Fresh water
from the hose My brother Sean was holding in his hand A little
water must have gotten up the mamma’s nose I’d like
to laugh about it but I can’t A manatee
sneezed on me…a manatee sneezed on me Its nasal
capacity’s a lot A manatee
sneezed on me…a manatee sneezed on me You might
think it’s funny It’s not It
could’ve been worse the sneeze was clear Yes there
are worse sneezes I hear There was a
huff and then a snuff And then
she sprayed me with her stuff There was
no clue, no big ha-choo She simply
snorted and it flew She felt so
bad for what she’d done She tried
to clean me with her tongue A manatee
sneezed on me…a manatee sneezed on me Its nasal
capacity I got A manatee
sneezed on me…a manatee sneezed on me You might think it’s funny It’s not I did not know just what to do And so I hollered “God bless you!” © Flying Stone Music 1998 |
