“With pleasure,” answered Tono, and then he and his orchestra played and sang Three Crows.

“Three crows there were once who sat on a tree,

Fa-lo, fa-la, fa-lee!

Said one ‘I should like to sail o’er the sea,’

Fa-lo, fa-la, fa-lee!

The other two looked so gloomy and blue,

Fa-lo, fa-la, fa-lee!

Said they: ‘If you do, we’ll surely go too,’

Fa-lo, fa-la, fa-lee!”
