Today is Very Boring

by Jack Prelutsky

Today is very boring,
It’s a very boring day,
There is nothing much to look at,
There is nothing much to say,
There’s a peacock on my sneakers,
There’s a penguin on my head,
There’s a dormouse on my doorstep,
I am going back to bed.

Today is very boring,
It is boring through and through,
There is absolutely nothing
That I think I want to do,
I see giants riding rhinos,
And an ogre with a sword,
There’s a dragon blowing smoke rings,
I am positively bored.

Today is very boring,
I can hardly help but yawn,
There’s a flying saucer landing
In the middle of my lawn,
A volcano just erupted
Less than half a mile away,
And I think I felt an earthquake,
It’s a very boring day.
