Tough Guy Camp
One afternoon during lunch, our loved one's young nephew learned his Uncle MJ would be going to an autism sleep-away camp during the summer. He knew all about sleep-away camp from watching cartoons.
This comment was met with a look of resignation and fear. The good news is MJ not only survived autism camp, he had a great time! And so, this song was born during music class at school. His class sang this song, along with other original lyrics written by classmates at their annual assembly performance.
Tough Guy CampLyrics by MJ BrownWent to tough guy camp last summer and I lifted weights. Went swimming in the tough guy pool. I was so cool. I woke up and brushed my teeth. Drank a raw egg. Took a shower and washed the egg off. Started exercising, doing 100 push-ups 100 times. Phew! Then I climbed under barbed wire. I was on fire. Repeat 2 Times When camp was through there was nothing left to do But admire my muscles at the tough guy camp.
