BIG BARNEY
I love Big Barney!
His body round and fat,
He wears a curly orange wig
And an orange and yellow hat.
 
His face is painted white,
He has a black rubber nose.
He wears a purple tie
With polka-dotted clothes.
 
His lips are ruby red,
His eyebrows are green,
And he has the biggest smile
That you’ve ever seen.
 
He blows up balloons,
He tells funny jokes,
He drives a crazy car
And breaks all the spokes.
 
I love Big Barney!
He’s such a funny clown.
He makes me so happy.
I’m glad he came to town.
