A cute little cuss, you'd declare
With eyes full Of fun
And nose that begun
Right up u the roots Of his hair

As he played through the long summer da.
As his father used to,
In Chinaland, far, far away.

"Melican butterfly"
Said he, with winking eye,

Then with his cap
He struck it with rap
This innocent bumble-bee-
And put It's remains
In the seat Of his jeans;
For pocket there had the Chinee.
Down on the green
Sat the little sardine
In style that was strangely deinure.
And said with u grin
That was brimful Of sin.
