Before I go To Bed I See A...

There's a jingle in my jar
And rain on my shoe
There's a mat under my legs
And pain on my hands

There's kids on the road
And they are having fun
There's grass on the path
And people in the sun

There's lots of people at Burger King
And people playing basketball
There's trees at Ruapotaka
And badminton in the main hall
