Seven Nights To Read

Lyrics: (Chorus:)
I've got seven nights to read, seven nights to write
Seven nights, if you take a look, you'll see my face in a different book
Seven nights to read, seven nights to write
Monday - I'm reading in my chair
Tuesday - I'm reading on the stairs
Wednesday - I'm reading in my bed
Thursday - I'm reading on my head
Friday - I'm reading in a canoe
Saturday, Sunday - any place will do
(Chorus)
Monday - I'm reading Red Balloon
Tuesday - I'm reading Goodnight Moon
Wednesday - I'm reading 'bout Babar
Thursday - Where the Wild Things Are
Friday - I'm reading Winnie the Pooh
Saturday, Sunday - any book will do
(Chorus)
Monday - I'm writing with my pen
Tuesday - I'm writing to a friend
Wednesday - I write a note to dad
Thursday - I write a story that's sad
Friday - I write a song for you
Saturday, Sunday - anything will do
(Chorus)
(Tag:)
I've got seven nights to read, seven nights to write.
Note: It's easy to come up with new verses for the 2nd verse, by substituting different books. Here's an example for older readers:
Monday - I'm reading Harriet the Spy
Tuesday - I read The People Could Fly
Wednesday - I read The Lord of the Rings
Thursday - I read The Once and Future King
Friday - I'm reading Nancy Drew
Saturday, Sunday - any book will do
I've got seven nights to read, seven nights to write
Seven nights, if you take a look, you'll see my face in a different book
Seven nights to read, seven nights to write
Monday - I'm reading in my chair
Tuesday - I'm reading on the stairs
Wednesday - I'm reading in my bed
Thursday - I'm reading on my head
Friday - I'm reading in a canoe
Saturday, Sunday - any place will do
