THE PRICE OF PERSUASION

NO!
by Tammy Pringle

No! No way!
Absolutely not!
Not a chance that I shall
Not for all the money you've got

Go ahead and beg
It will do you no good
I'm not giving in
Though the whole world thinks I should

Hang me upside down
By my left big toe
And I'll answer you the same
Read my lips, "N-O!"

Not if Mickey Mouse
Turns into Mickey Cow
I will not, I won't
No way, no how!

You may whine, you may plead
You may think me unkind
But not today nor any day
Will I change my mind

Not for all the green in Greenland
Not for all the gum in Guam
Never, ever, ever!
Even if you tell my mom

Not for -
A PAIR OF MOTORIZED ROCKET ROLLER BLADES CUSTOM SIZED?!!
Well, I suppose that . . . maybe . . .
I might possibly be bribed!
