Bob the Burglar:

	When Bob the Burglar goes to work He always goes at night. He wears his very darkest suit And takes his shadiest light. His face is covered with a mask, Dark hat upon his head, He enters other peoples homes While they're asleep in bed.
He wears his very softest shoes, Because they make no noise, Unless he trips on lego stuff Or treads on squeaky toys. He quietly breaks a window Or forces back a door, And then he steals your cash and gold And leaves you rather poor.	I can squeak louder than anyone!
	"I think I know who did this thing," Says Officer Mc Blew, "This broken door suggests to me 'Twas Burglar Bob Balloo. I'll search through his apartment, And there, inside a bag, I'll find your missing cash and things, And other burglar's swag."
So Bob Balloo's apartment Was searched, and there they found Cash and gold and diamonds Weighing nearly fourteen pound. They put the handcuffs on him, He was looking rather pale, They put him in the burglar bus And took him off to jail.
The moral of this story, I am sure you will agree: Keep all your doors and windows locked And take care with the key, For Bob may be locked up inside Where he can do no evil, But the work of a thief is beyond belief And there's many a thieving weevil.
