A, B, C

A, B, C, tumble down D,
The cat’s in the cupboard
And can’t see me.

Comical Folk

IN a cottage in Fife
Lived a man and his wife,
Who, believe me, were comical folk;

For, to people’s surprise,
They both saw with their eyes,
And their tongues moved whenever they spoke.

When they were asleep,
I’m told—that to keep
Their eyes open they could not contrive;

They both walked on their feet,
And ’t was thought what they eat
Helped, with drinking, to keep them alive.
