Rubber Star

Take a load off
You might strain your shoulder
Loosen up a little
Here’s a piece off rubber

You need not waste much time
To learn this nifty trick
All you need are your fingers
And a simple cheap elastic

Stretch your imagination
You don’t have to have a lot
Just twist that piece of rubber
and a rubber star you’ve got!

Don’t mind your blackhole sorrow
That’s inelastic crap
You see no matter what happens
The rubber star wont snap!

Rubber Star, Rubber Star
Shines so near yet stretches far
