To see a high-bred horse when prancing, is no news;
But to see a cat fiddling and mice all dancing, is strange indeed!
Come foot it, my dears,
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!
First of all, I'll shoot this clown,
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!
