  3. I work fast but not when I'm full. Sometimes I die and I need a chord. Flashing lights or buzzing noises you'll know I go off when the teacher takes me. Before you go to bed you play with me and I wake you up with the set of a timer.

  4. I am always present but not always visible
    I can walk a mile a day or not move an inch
    I'll Never smell as good as when I was first bought
    I am needed by all

    I come in different lengths
    I come in all colors
