A Goop Party (Top) — A Goop Party

“Please come to my party!” said Jenny to Prue;
“I’m going to have Willy, and Nelly, and you;
I’m going to have candy and cake and ice-cream,
We’ll play Hunt-the-Slipper, we’ll laugh and we’ll scream.
We’ll dress up in caps, we’ll have stories and tricks,
And you won’t have to go till a quarter past six!”
But alas! When she mentioned her party, at tea,
Her mother said, “No! It can’t possibly be!”
So Jane had to go and explain to her friends,
And that is how many a Goop party ends!
Just speak to your mother before you invite,
And then it’s more likely to happen all right!
