This story begins just like most stories do A family a house and some kids just like you My tale is a good one it might take some time To tell you the story the trouble with slime Not just about slime there’s a girl and a boy Meet Sarah and Sam and their idea of joy Those twins really wanted a gallon of slime Slick slippery goo as green as a lime
For 22.50 it comes in the mail But the work and the waiting slow as a snail They saved their allowance and did extra stuff For mother and father it wasn’t enough They asked the nice lady who lived right next door Can we dog walk for you Scrub dirt off the floor She gave them a list of some work to be done They tried to stay focused There’s no time for fun
They finished the work then got paid and came back To their room to count money well after a snack They reread the ad at least three dozen times Professor McNasty’s Collection of Slimes When it comes to slime colors we have the most Red blue and yellow or green glowing ghost Counting each dollar each day every time After weeks made enough for their gallon of slime
