Quite permiscuous! Who'd ha' thought of it?

I sat in the parler along with her,

Tucking into the eggs and the bread and but-tèr,—

When in come her Par with the kitching po-kèr!

Quite permiscuous! Who'd ha' thought of it?"

There was a chorus, of course:—

"Quite permiscuous! Who'd ha' thought of it?

Who can guess what's going to be!

Whatever you fancy'll fall far short of it.

That's the way things 'appen with me!"
