Within the house by words and deeds
I've run an Anti-Waste Campaign;
On every tap the legend reads:
"Teetotalers, abstain!"
While on each bath and tub of mine
I've drawn freehand a Plimsoll line,
Impressionist but plain.
When upward mount my chops and cheese
I fain must bend beneath the blow;
I have to pay the price for these
