Shirley Decorated her Hair

She decorated her hair like a Christmas present that day
Putting people who walked in immediately into a festive fray
Hey! Said her Uncle Zeke, who loved every holiday
Shirley’s hair deserves an enormous happy hooray!

She was thrilled with the enthusiasm of her family that day
They liked to build her up, and treat her with a bit of play
Her cousin teased her a bit, his name was Odd Clay
She was glad to see he was a teensy bit more normal today
