Snore No More! (ore) (Tune: Mary Had a Little Lamb)

Have you heard my daddy’s snore?

I’m sure you’ll say it’s not a bore!

It sounds just like a lion’s roar,

a sound poor Mom cannot ignore!

“Snore! Snore! Please snore no more!”

is what she says from nine ‘til four.

I know my mom is hoping for

a silent night and no more snore!
