The World Turned Upside Down Or, No News, and Strange News
see a high-bred horse when prancing, is no news;
But to see a cat fiddling and mice all dancing, is strange indeed!
And when you've done,
I'll eat you for supper,
Aye, every one.
To see a lady drinking of tea, is no news;
But to see a bird shoot a man in a tree, is strange indeed!
And then I'll bring his bow wow down.
To see a boy swim in a brook, is no news;
But to see a fish catch a man with hook, is strange indeed!
I didn't molest you.
I'll spare you no longer
Than till I dress you.
To see a cat steal milk from a pan, is no news;
But to see a buck hunting a man, is strange indeed!
He can't get away:
And he's not buck enough
To stand at a bay.
To see a cobbler mending a shoe, is no news;
But to see a goat cry old clothes like a jew, is strange indeed!
To cheat ven I can,
Yet for all that I be
A very goot man.
To see a haymaker using of rakes, is no news;
But to see a bear making plum cakes, is strange indeed!
I shall eat if I can,
And this cake on the shelf,
I shall keep for myself.
To see a barrel made by a cooper, is no news,
But to see a goat act the part of a trooper, is strange indeed!
For the honour of Wales,
And if the French come,
They shall turn their tails.
To see wrestlers kicking shins, is no news;
But to see cats playing at nine pins, is strange indeed!
I'll knock down all, and swallow the ball.
To hear a parrot say, pretty Poll, is no news;
But to see a sow with a parasol, is strange indeed!
I'm so fat and so fine;
I've a right I suppose,
To a shade for my nose.
Little Folks may be supplied with a great variety of Little Books.
