The Booger Factory Yay We’re going on a field trip Dandy cheered as they stood at the bus stop Yeah Malcolm said I hope it’s someplace cool this time That trip to the florist last year was stupid Who cares about cutting and arranging flowers Amber Anderson cared Dandy reminded him Remember She was in the hospital for a week
Malcolm remembered I wonder why she didn’t tell anyone about her allergies I don’t know but she swelled up like a rhino Dandy said And she broke out in prickly hives Yeah she looked like a cactus with a ponytail Malcolm added Dandy’s face lit up as he said You won’t believe where we’re going this year Malcolm blinked You know already Dandy did a little shuffle I overheard some kids talking Guess where we’re going Dandy knew something Malcolm didn’t Where Malcolm asked Guess Dandy said I don’t want to guess
Come on Dandy urged still shuffling his feet Just tell me Dandy bounced anxiously Bounce bounce bounce Guess Malcolm sighed Fine We’re going to a piano factory Bounce bounce bounce Nope A train station Uh-uh Bounce bounce bounce A beauty salon Dandy froze and scratched his ear Why would they take us to a beauty salon Malcolm snickered To get us out of their hair Dandy grinned Good one
So where are we going Malcolm asked Dandy leaned close like he was afraid someone might overhear Which seemed silly since they were the only two at the bus stop You aren’t going to believe it Dandy just tell me I heard some kids say that we’re going to a booger factory Dandy whispered Malcolm stepped back What There’s no such thing as a booger factory There must be Dandy said fidgeting with his collar That’s what they said Maybe they were just teasing you He shook his head They didn’t know I was listening And they didn’t sound like they were teasing
