Chorus.--With a whip, snip, high cum diddledy,

The cog-wheels of life have need of much oiling;

Smack, crack--this is our jubilee;

Huzza, my lads! we'll keep the pot boiling.

"Dick Short must sing."

"Yes," replied Dick.

Jack's alive and full of fun,

When his hulk is crazy,

As he basks in Greenwich sun,

Jolly still though lazy.
