One Eye Open

Boy, look at the letter A
Cover your left eye
Cover your eye

And will you please explain
What are you seeing again
When the letters grow small

Boy, look at the room
And cover your right eye
And look at my hand

And will you say to me
How many fingers you see
With one eye open

Boy, your eyes are much bigger now
Bigger than your stomach
Open them up again

And will you please say to me
How many fingers you see
With one eye open
