They are not in the fashion and soon must be gone,
It’s all up the spout with the saucy chignon.
’Tis a good job they’re going, for the darling young girls
I am sure would look better in natural curls;
Madame Rachel has worn such a wopper ’tis said,
She is quite bandy-leg’d thro’ the weight of her head:
Girls that want to be married before Whitsuntide,
Pull off your Chignons and throw them aside,
If you practice economy you’ll find it true,
That a fancy chignon will make bustles for two.
