Lovely Frocks

In my Mummy’s wardrobe, there are lots of
   lovely frocks,
  I know because I’ve seen them hanging
   there;
There’s purple, and there’s orange, and a frilly
   one of blue,
  And a yellow that is shiny like her hair.

The satin frocks make Mummy look just like a
   fairy Queen—
  But she can’t cuddle me at all in those—
And when she wears a silken frock, it rustles
   like the trees—
  But I can’t kiss her ’cos I spoils the bows.

And tho’ I love her pretty dresses, ’cos she
   looks so grand,
  What I like really best of all to see,
Is when she’s in the garden, wearing just an
   overall—
  And comes to romp and play about with me.
