At a notion of mine—I was down on them sharp
With my waggery, ah!
My waggery, oh!
For I crush'd them at once with my waggery, oh!
Among persons of genius the tone that I took
Was a mixture of Jerrold and Theodore Hook.
And a great fund of anecdote, varied in style,
I employ'd among duffers to get up a smile
At my waggery, ah!
My waggery, oh!
