Vanishing Cream

Silly

There is this new product

Called vanishing cream

Oh, it's a dream

Just rub it on your skin and you won't be seen

Now, when I go out and about

I don't have to worry, or pout

Or have a fit

About the unicorn horn that is really a zit

The only thing is, I can't wear clothes

Otherwise, they would surely show

Because the cream doesn't work over clothes

So, around I walk, invisibly naked to everyone's eye

With this new vanishing cream, I sure feel spry

Until today, when I woke up late

Receiving the worst luck and fate

I forgot to put on the cream

As part of my daily routine

And, out I stepped through the front door

Boy, did everyone on the street have a sight in store

I walked a full block before I realized what I'd done

Then, to home, I rushed, on the run
