I had a strange thought as I tried to sleep
Just why did Mary have a little lamb?
What kind of parent buys their kid a sheep?
And what would be next a gold-plated ham?
I bet that Mary was a spoiled brat!
She probably acted up all the time
I bet she had all she wanted at that;
in her parents' eyes she could do no crime
Did they even care she brought it to school?
Did they think that her actions were errant?
When they say that it was against the rules
were they those of the school or the parents?
But I don't thing I'll ever meet Mary,
so I'll fall asleep with this quandary.
