You say, “empty,”
And I say, “full,”
You say, “morning,”
And I say, “noon,”
You say, “hello,”
And I say, “bye, bye,”
What I want to do,
Is put a stick in your eye.

You say, “happy,”
And I say, “sad,”
You say, “share,”
And I say, “beware,”
You say, “we,:
And I say, “me.”
I want be mean,
Rude and obscene.

You want to be nice,
And smile a big smile,
You want to giggle,
And roll in the aisle,
You want to laugh,
And play with your friends,
I want to grouch,
And unravel the ends.
