A Calvin and Hobbes Collection by Bill Wattcrson

llte YuU Song Mv for friend hasgof the sled, AM i have packed a snack. Vle're all set fur the trip ahead, We're never coming bad!

We're abandoning this life we've led! & Iona,Mow and Pop! We're sick of doing what fouto said. And now ifs going fo stop!

Were going where it snows all vear, Where life can have real meaning. A place where we wont have to h&r, "four room could sfand some cleaning.'

The futon is the place for us! » where we wanffo live. re well get to veil and cuss,

And ac(; real primitive.

Well never havefo go fo school, Forced iit|o submission, Bv monstrous, crabby tochers who'll Make us learn addition.

We'll never havefo clean a plate,

saaftjsr- Using am) fork we choose!

Thetimber wolves will be our friends. We'll sfav up lafe and howl, Afthe Won, till nighttime ends, Before going onfheprowt.

Oh, what a life! We cannot waif, Fo be in fhaf arctic land, Where well be masters ofour fate. And lead a life fhat's grand/

Good riddancqo those orewn-up ghouls! We're leaving! Vito/®/ ro

GOODNESS, WRE FTLTOV. INTO THE TUB WTH TOO.
