Lyrics

See the little brown girl She's as old as me She looks just like chocolate Oh mummy can't you see We are both in first grade She sits next to me I took care of her mum When she skinned her knee She sang a song so pretty On the Jungle Gym When Jimmy tried to hurt her I punched him in the chin Mom, can she come over To play dolls with me? We could have such fun mum Oh mum what'd you say Why not? oh why not? Oh. . . I. . . see. . .
