9-1-1 You Can Use a Cellphone!

A cell phone is cool, it is so much fun, But did you know you can

call 9-1-1?

It’s a little bit different from the phone in your house,

It will fit in your pocket like your friend’s pet mouse.

Make sure the phone power is on- that’s a must, The rest is quite easy- you I

can trust.

Just press the buttons 9-1-1, But wait; your job is still not done.

There is one more thing before you end, You have to press a button to SEND.

If you fall off the swing and break your bone,

You can get help by using your cellphone.

What if you fall off your bike and tear more than your shirt,

What if you hit your head And you are really, really hurt?

A cellphone is easy, an ambulance will come in the end,

All you have to do is call 9-1-1-Send!

What if you are home with your friends

and having fun, a robber breaks in and you want to run!

What if the bad guys are doing a crime?

They are in your house stealing your last dime.

Use your cellphone, because the police officer is your friend,

All you have to do is call 9-1-1-Send!

If you happen to see or smell lots of

smoke, You must leave the house or else you

may choke.

If your cellphone is handy, that will be dandy, Do not pretend, for real call

9-1-1-Send!

If you see a big bug up on your bed, Don’t call 9-1-1-Send, please use your

head!

If you see your kitty up high in a

tree, Should you call 9-1-1-Send? No siree!

If your favorite toy is missing a part, Don’t call 9-1-1-Send, now that’s being

smart!

If you don’t like the way your mom

combs your hair, Don’t call 9-1-1-Send, that wouldn’t be

fair!

So the fire, medical and police are your friend, Just remember on your

cellphone call 9-1-1-Send!
