Bluie, My Octopus Friend (Children)

I’m a human and Bluie’s an octopus.
If we’re friends what’s the fuss?
I have two legs and two hands, but
He’s got eight limbs to listen to his commands!

He’s a genius at school, you know?
I do only one subject homework at a time
While Bluie can do four times as much!
Don’t tell, but he also does the homework which is mine!

I’m a human and Bluie’s an octopus.
If we’re friends what’s the fuss?
Are you jealous that he helps me with schoolwork?
- If so, get lost your jerk!
