Ms. Purple (For My Niece, Johnette Loefgren)

Now ain't I just the cutest purple spider You have ever seen And don't you just LLOOOVEEE My web of iridescent green I made it today for a special group You, and your friends from PoetrySoup So, bring the gang on over to the Poetry Cafe Just come as you are,you all know the way There's never a cover charge And the dance band is free Of course, I wouldn't mind If you brought a lil treat for me A tasty fly to nibble on Would suit me just fine But remember, I have to be in bed A little after nine With twenty three little ones To care for all alone By nine I'm really tired And weary to the bone But, you and the gang Are welcome to stay And party hearty 'Til the break of day Just lock the doors on your way out And leave a tip for the band It was nice to see you all So come back as soon as you can
