Mommy went to bed early
Asali stayed behind, partying the whole night long
Dora the explorer was on a repeat button
Asali jumped up and down like a button
She danced when Dora danced, sang along and answered Dora's questions
Occasionally Asali would peek in to make sure mommy was still snoring
Then she would carefully close the door
Asali like Dora the explorer also did a little exploration
In the fridge she went finding all kinds of goodies
But one thing, one little big thing stood out
Between the sticky sweet fingers and Dora the explorer
Asali was having the best night ever
She danced and jumped to the fridge and tv
back and forth
Little crumbs of cake followed her little steps
Joining the fun, of the best night ever
Then somewhere in the night, Asali got very tired
Luckily she found her way to her pink bed
But Dora the explorer continued to play
And the fridge was left ajar
