**(Written as a song. Sung with a british accent)
Portals.
I've been told that books are completely boring
That next to nobody cares about some stupid stories
But if that's true, apparently my life must be gray
Considering poetry and songwriting make up most of my day
And today... I'll change their mind
I'll take them on an adventure through the different lands of time
Teach them loads of poetry, with or without rhyme
Let them explore the deepest valleys in the sea
And let them know that books can really be
Portals to other worrrrrrlds.
I put a book into their hands and then told them to read it
They told me to just screw off, to go ahead and beat it
But later, then, what did I see? A lonely cool-kid wanna be
With that book
in his hands
Eventually he realized the worlds that stories hold
The space lands and fairy kingdoms, the history of times old
He told me that he was sorry for the jerky way he's acting
Told me that he just wanted to see how others were reacting
Truth was that he loved to read but since that wasn't "cool"
And today... he changed his mind
He'll take them on an adventure through the different lands of time
Teach them loads of poetry, with or without rhyme
Let them explore the deepest valleys in the sea
And let them know that books can really be
Portals to other worrrrrrlds.
