STOP IT! by Katherine Lynas

Someone keeps putting these things in my way.
It's causing me problems, 
I just have to say,
STOP IT please Someone,
Please put things away,
For I am the one that always must pay.

I've a bruise on my bottom,
A scab on my knee,
A scratch on my forearm,
Oh please can't you see,
That I'm bruised and I'm battered,
I'm blue and I'm black.
My head is all swollen
From when it went CRACK!

So STOP IT please Someone,
Please put things away,
Or I will get angry and ruin your day!
