Shel Silverstein - SmartShel Silverstein - Smart
Work rating: Low


My dad gave me one dollar bill `Cause I`m his smartest son, And I swapped it for two shiny quarters `Cause two is more then one! And then I took the quarters And traded them to Lou For three dimes-- I guess he didn`t know That three is more than two! Just then, along came old blind Bates And just `cause he can`t see He gave me four nickels for my three dimes, And four is more than three! And I took the nickels to Hiram Coombs Down at the seed-feed store, And the fool gave me five pennies for them, And five is more than four! And I went and showed my dad, And he got red in the cheeks And closed his eyes and shook his head-- Too proud of me to speak!
