The Quangle Wangle's hat On top of the Crumpetty Tree The Quangle Wangle sat, But his face you could not see, On account of his Beaver Hat. For his Hat was a hundred and two feet wide, With ribbons and bibbons on every side, And bells, and buttons, and loops, and lace, So that nobody ever could see the face Of the Quangle Wangle Quee. The Quangle Wangle said To himself on the Crumpetty Tree, 'Jam, and jelly, and bread Are the best of food for me! But the longer I live on this Crumpetty Tree The plainer than ever it seems to me That very few people come this way And that life on the whole is far from gay!' Said the Quangle Wangle Quee. But there came to the Crumpetty Tree Mr and Mrs Canary; And they said, 'Did you ever see Any spot so charmingly airy? May we build a nest on your lovely Hat? Mr Quangle Wangle, grant us that! Oh, please let us come and build a nest, Of whatever material suits you best, Mr Quangle Wangle Quee!' And besides, to the Crumpetty Tree Came the Stork, the Duck, and the Owl; The Snail and the Bumble Bee, The Frog and the Fimble Fowl (The Fimble Fowl, with a corkscrew leg); And all of them said, 'We humbly beg We may build our homes on your lovely Hat- Mr Quangle Wangle, grant us that! Mr Quangle Wangle Quee!' And the Golden Grouse came there, And the Pobble who has no toes, And the small Olympian Bear, And the Dong with a luminous nose. And the Blue Baboon who played the flute, And the Orient Calf from the Land of Tute, And the Attery Squash, and the Bisky Bat- All came and built on the lovely Hat Of the Quangle Wangle Quee! And the Quangle Wangle said To himself on the Crumpetty Tree, 'When all these creatures move What a wonderful noise there'll be!' And at night by the light of the Mulberry Moon They danced to the Flute of the Blue Baboon, On the broad green leaves of the Crumpetty Tree, And all were as happy as happy could be, With the Quangle Wangle Quee. The Owl and the Pussy-cat The Owl and the Pussy-cat went to sea In a beautiful pea-green boat, They took some honey, and plenty of money, Wrapped up in a five-pound note, The Owl looked up to the stars above, And sang to a small guitar, 'O lovely Pussy! O Pussy, my love, What a beautiful Pussy you are, You are, You are! What a beautiful Pussy you are!' Pussy said to the Owl, 'You elegant fowl! How charmingly sweet you sing! O let us be married! too long we have tarried: But what shall we do for a ring?' They sailed away, for a year and a day, To the land where the Bong-tree grows And there in a wood a Piggy-wig stood With a ring at the end of his nose, His nose, His nose, With a ring at the end of his nose. 'Dear Pig, are you willing to sell for one shilling Your ring?' Said the Piggy, 'I will.' So they took it away, and were married next day By the turkey who lives on the hill. They dined on mince, and slices of quince, Which they ate with a runcible spoon; And hand in hand, on the edge of the sand, They danced by the light of the moon, The moon, The moon, They danced by the light of the moon. London Bridge London Bridge has fallen down, Fallen down, fallen down, London Bridge has fallen down, My fair Lady. Build it up with wood and clay, Wood and clay, wood and clay, Build it up with wood and clay, My fair Lady.

Set a man to watch all nigh, Watch all night, watch all night, Set a man to watch all night, My fair Lady.

There was a little girl There was a little girl Who had a little curl Right in the middle of her forehead. When she was good, She was very very good But when she was bad She was horrid There was a crooked man There was a crooked man, and he walked a crooked mile. He found a crooked sixpence against a crooked stile. He had a crooked cat which caught a crooked mouse And they all lived together in a little crooked house. | |
