A Bedtime Story For Mr. Lamb
What story would you like to hear, Mr. Lamb? Are you a real lamb? Would you like to hear of Webbers? Or Whales? Here is the Story of Alice: The Queen wants to have a baby, That's why she's kissing her hand. The Mad Habit is pouring specklish tea. Finally, the Mad Habit and the Queen go to sleep, But she's not looking at him. He's just pouring the milk. Goodnight, Mr. Lamb, Have a nice dream. Sleep like a lamb. Don't rough scream Scream smooth.
