All Wrapped Up
It’s waterproof and stretchable.
It cools me when it’s hot.
It warns me when the ground is rough
and when my finger’s caught.
It keeps me safe from nasty germs
although it’s soft and thin.
It wraps me up from head to toe:
this super skin I’m in!
It cools me when it’s hot.
It warns me when the ground is rough
and when my finger’s caught.
It keeps me safe from nasty germs
although it’s soft and thin.
It wraps me up from head to toe:
this super skin I’m in!
