I've voted twice
(says Ruby).
The first time there were two people
and I voted for the one in the red top.
The second time there were three people
and I voted for the one in the blue top.
My new job
(and I think I will have it forever)
is Animal Lists.

I saw one monkey
I saw one monkey
(says Elsie)
swinging on the fridge door.
Then the fridge door shut
And he got stuck inside
And called Help! Help!
very loudly.

True love
There could be bad water
(says Elsie).
She might get drowned and fall asleep
like Sleeping Beauty,
like this.
And he might fall in love
with her but not yet,
only when he drags the water
out of her mouth.
The boy has to make the tonic
and put it in the girl's mouth
because she fell asleep.
He says I love you,
when I sleep
I always dream of your love of me.
Jam fingers
in the dark depths
of the spear.
You're already got to married.

The truth of my life
My monkeys have cutting plates
(says Elsie).
They must not cut me
or the truth of my life.

I love laughing (says Elsie)
I love laughing
(says Elsie).
It makes me feel
nice and firm.
Can you hear that wind?
It's breathing.
