6:15am Power Ballad

As usual, once Jacket woke-up I pulled her out of the crib and into my bed to try and get a few more winks.  Here’s the lyrics to the song she sang a few centimeters from my face as she played with a Penguin hair clip:

Ping-gweeeee, Ping-gwee

Ping-greee, Ping-gree

WAKE-UP! (licks my nose)

Ping-gwee, Oh Ping-COME ON!

Ping-gwee, Oof Pees (“Off Please” wants me to take the hair rubberband off my wrist)

Ping-HEP HEP HEP PEES (‘Help Please” has rubberband stuck in toes)

Gweeeeeeeeeeee-ee-eeeeee

Ping-gwee, OH OH OH NO! (She’s lifted my shirt and discovered my tattoo)

Ping-Puppy Puppy Ping-gwee

HAND! (She takes my hand and tries to yank me out of bed)

Ping-gweee-ee, OPEN! (Jerks pillow out from under my head)

Ping, CA-CA! CA-CA, CA-CAAAA! (“I just took a crap”)
