I'm an UnderCover Reader!

My parents think I'm sleeping
Tucked up tight in bed
Innocently dreaming
But instead...

I'm an UnderCover Reader!
I've got my flashlight on
Huddled underneath the sheets
Trying not to yawn.

I'm like a secret agent spy,
Working on a case,
Hiding, sneaking, peeking,
Trying not to lose my place

My book is so exciting
It's really awfully good
So I couldn't put it down
Even though I should.

I'm an UnderCover Reader!
I read and never stop
I'll hold my book for hours
'til I let it drop.

Tomorrow I'll be tired
I'll sag and droop and bend
But I'll also know what happens
In "The End".
