W. A. G.'s Tale

A ZOBZEE
ON THE BRIDGE
HE JUMPED OUT AND TOOK A ROPE AND PULLED THE BOAT CLOSE
SHE WASHED AND I DRIED
HE TURNED AND WENT INTO THE WHITE STONE HOUSE, AND ALL THE CATS RAN AFTER HIM
HE SMOKED A PIPE, AND I PLAYED WITH ALL HIS TEDDY-CATS
BRINGS HIM DOWN, PERSIMMONS AND ALL
SO I TOOK MY FISHING-ROD AND FLICKED IT AT HIM
NEVER YOU MIND, BABY DEAR, COME ON
WHAT'S AN ABSENT-MINDED BEGGAR?
HEY, ROBINSON CRUSOE, HERE'S YOUR MAN FRIDAY
HE HAD TO TAKE A CAN-OPENER AND CUT AUNTY EDITH'S FOOT OUT
