Searching

Long ago, in a castle so small





A Prince was growing up, getting tall




No longer a boy, becoming a man

Needed something to do, he needed a plan!!





I have a plan for what you could be,




become a star wrestler, strong and unyielding




win your fights, acclaim and fame




charm the ladies too, "hey babe, whatcha' doing?!"





I have a plan for someone so tall





Handle the baby as I shop at the mall





Drive me to where I need to be





And massage my feet to help relax me.





Ugh.







No, no, no that plan is all wrong,





be a wonderful vampire, with teeth so long






haunting the halls is so much fun






as is drinking the blood of everyone








I think I've got a better plan



I'll work hard and learn all that I can






Become an astronaut, bathe in the stars' glow






Or become a biologist, see the ocean below





Maybe a dancer, stealing the show







Or become a baker, baking fresh dough





Who knows what will happen

we'll see what I know

as for everyone else

your plans really blow!





If I work hard
then I'll become
a real star




like my favourite, bestest Uncle (of course)!



Happy Birthday!!
