Growing Up

I've got shoes with grown up laces,

I've got knickers and a pair of braces,

I'm all ready to run some races.

Who's coming out with me?


I've got a nice new pair of braces,

I've got shoes with new brown laces,

I know wonderful paddly places.

Who's coming out with me?


Every morning my new grace is,

"Thank you, God, for my nice braces:

I can tie my new brown laces."

Who's coming out with me?
