With July 4th coming up...
I’d better open my ears! For the crackles and the sizzles, and the zangy zoony whizzles!
With July 4th coming up...
I’d better open my eyes! To the reds and the blues between the sparkling yellow hues!
With July 4th coming up...
I’d better open my mouth! For the frosting and the berries and the candy-coated cherries!
With July 4th coming up...
I’d better open my nose! To the burgers and the fries and the strawberry pies!
With July 4th coming up...
I’d better open my arms! To high-five a father and feel the warmth of a mother.
I’d better just be ready
With July 4th coming up!
