If I Were Invisible

If I Were Invisible

If I were invisible
How grand my life would be!
I could do what'ere I want
And none of you could see.

I would throw the dishes ’round
Amuck I’d run undaunted.
Such grand pranks for you abound
You’d think your house was haunted.

I’d sneak up slowly next to you
And pinch you while you slept.
Nibble your nose, tickle your toes
I’d trip you as you stepped.

I would hide your keys from you
And then short-sheet your bed.
Put peanut butter in your shoe
Pandemonium widespread.

Take one of each pair of socks
And throw it in the trash.
At night I would cut off your locks
Unseen, away I’d dash.

I’d mix some dirt in with your tea
I’d go on a mischief spree!
Oh, how grand my life would be
If I were invisible.
