Im desperate
I need help
I really do
I am a horseshoe crab without a shoe
Now I lie here on my back
Dont swing me hard my tail will crack
Dont leave me here because Ill cry
When the seagulls come down from the sky
Theyll peck me once theyll peck me twice
Then theyll eat me with a side of rice
If you would flip me it would be great
Its something Id appreciate
When youre walking on the beach alone
Do not kick me I am not a stone
Just simply flip me
Then leave me alone
