A Boy Named Seth
Here's the scary story bout
A daring boy named Seth
Riding his two wheel bicycle
He scared his Mom to death
Wore the necessary helmet
But didn't follow rules
Doing silly tricks and stuff
And acting like a fool!
One time not too long ago
On a sticky summer day
Showing off for friends of his
And much to their dismay
His bike went flying off the curb
And rolled into the street
Into the path of speeding vehicle
The car and bike did meet
Fortunately the boy named Seth
Jumped off before it hit
The bike ended up a pile of junk
The car bumper badly split
Seth had scrapes and bruises
On his unprotected body
He sure was mighty thankful
Cause he was being naughty
Now you know there'll be a moral
With most of these there's one
When riding your bike near traffic
It's alright to have some fun
But pay attention to safety rules
Never mind those tricky feats
You'll live a long and happy life
Not splattered all over the street!
