An Arm and A Leg

Sarah had a plan

A plan of getting away

But she lacked the currency she needed to pay

She knew of a place where she wanted to go

A magical place all covered in snow

As she looked at the poster "the Arctic" it read

A voice from behind came and it said

“that would surely cost an arm and a leg”

At this, she was quite puzzled as she did not understand

But she could not let this get in the way of her plan

Sarah was quite different from you and from I

she could not tell the difference from the truth and a lie

sarcasm, jokes, and others alike

sayings and phrases like "go take a hike"

See Sarah was an outcast, it was hard to fit in

as much as she tried she could never win

she took a liking to puffins, those cute Arctic birds

for they could not speak and confuse her with words

Taking things literally never was much of a problem

Until the day she saw the poster that Autumn

To her apartment, she speeded

She knew what she needed

"I will live in the arctic" is what she repeated

"and forget all those times I was badly mistreated"

So now there she stood as lonely as can be

when all she ever wanted was just to be free

but her freedom was quite costly, an arm and a leg

Sarah needed hers so she took her roommates instead

Just a quick snip, a pull, and a tear

Getting carried away and even shaving her hair

“This will do it, they will see”

“Just a few more clips and there I’m free”
