If I saved $3.65 for a year
I could bring the world to tears
or cheer the world up if it feels sad
so I'll spend it on chalk, that would be rad!
I'd make the world have so much fun
with a hopscotch for old and young
I'd write jokes so people would laugh
in hidden corners way out back
and in front of the world I'd stand
chalk all over my small hands
and for another year I'd save
I'd draw for the world, I'd be its slave
because chalk can change the world ya know
one smile at a time, but together we grow
