I am a sloth
Endless hibernation
All year around
Oh, those naps!
The thing I can never resist

I am a machine gun
My giggles flowing out
Like the bullets from a Gatling gun
“Radadadadadadada”

I am a calculator
With built-in solar panels
Also fueled on battery
Never running out of energy
Like a star never running out of battery

I am a buttercup flower
Born in spring
Bathe your chin with
a yellow, radiant light
I glow with my radiance
