Take out all the trash
To the barrel of ash
But Mom it's raining

Take out all the trash
To the barrel of ash
It's so dark outside

I'm taking the trash
To the barrel of ash
On the way dropping

Dashing out with trash
To the barrel of ash
Over twigs tripping

I dump in the trash
To the barrel of ash
Sprinting back inside

Hoping Mom won't see
The big mess left from me
The trail left as guide

THE NEXT DAY

I see that some trash
Missed the barrel of ash
Mom says in morning

I'll clean it up wow
It is no trouble now
Daylight is dawning

There's nothing to fear
And I am almost there
While I'm still yawning

I pick up the trash
Toss in barrel of ash
Amid bugs swarming
