And how things inside the earth were done,

But the lad couldn’t answer a single one.

Said TEDDY-G: “If it doesn’t rain,

And you’ll tell us where to get a train

And the fare to pay and how long the run

From the place you name to Washington,

And your age and weight and greatest height,

And two bears you know that never bite,

I’ll give you a dollar, quick as wink,

And let you have it before you think.”
