A bout half a century ago
B efore I became as smart as I am today of
C ourse, there lived a little tow-headed girl named
D ebbie who was forever getting into
E very kind of trouble she could
F ind no matter where Debbie would
G o, trouble had a way of finding
H er and followed her around like Felix, Debbie's favorite cat.
I 'm innocent, Debbie would claim when the
J ar of peanut butter was half empty or the
K araoke machine blasted through the
L ime green walls which decorated her
M other's special room
N ext to the pink lollipop kitchen which
O pened up to the back
P addock where Debbie often pretended to be a
Q ueen waiting for her Prince to come
R iding in on his white horse wearing
S ilver spurs and
T arnished armor glittering in the afternoon sun
U ntil one day Debbie's cranky old brother named
V ictor, caught her red handed stealing cookies
W hen she was supposed to be taking a nap while looking through his
X -ray goggles with the
Y ellow snappy straps and ratted her out to mom; who of course took the
Z est right out of Debbie's afternoon and put her back down for her nap!
