CLOTHES ON THE FLOOR

Put your clothes in the hamper
Not the middle of the floor
If the pile gets any bigger
Mom yells, "You won't get out your door."

Socks, shoes, and underwear
Shirts, sweats, and pants
I got so tired of listening
To my mom's continuous rants

I'm not opposed to being clean
It's not that I'm just lazy
But where do we put dirty things?
I don't think this is crazy.

'Cause an idea hit my head
Struck me right out of the blue
To solve both your and my problem
I knew just what I should do

*the next morning my mom said*

"Where are all your clothes?"
I wondered why she was dim
'Cause the obvious answer is...
I threw them in the trash bin.

LISTEN TO ME READ

This sounds like something one of my kids, not saying which one, would have come up with.
