  17. Just a week or two ago my dear old Uncle Bill, He went and kicked the bucket and he left me in his will. So I went around the road to see my Auntie Jane. She said, "your Uncle Bill has left you a watch and chain." So I put it on right across my derby kell. The sun was shining on it and it made me look a swell. I went out, strolling round about. A crowd of kiddies followed me and they began to shout,

      When this old world starts getting me down

      And people are just too much for me to face

      I climb way up to the top of the stars

      And all my cares just drift right into space

      On the roof it's peaceful as can be

      And there the world below can't bother me

      Let me tell you now

    4. Rowsley17D

      Rowsley17D

      'Don't jump off the roof, Dad

      You'll make a hole in the yard

      Mother's just planted petunias

      The weeding and seeding was hard

       

      If you must end it all, Dad

      Won't you please give us a break

      Just take a walk down the park, Dad

      And there you can jump in the lake.'

  22. Once a lonely caterpillar sat and cried; To a sympathetic beetle by his side. "I've got nobody to hug, I'm such an ugly bug." Then a spider and a dragon fly replied, "If you're serious and want to win a bride, Come along with us, To the glorious Annual ugly bug ball."
