| We see a man with under lip that has a
downward droop.
| Upon his face scowl as If he'd fallen in
the soupi
| He roams about the busy streets In an
uneasy way,
And puts a surly accent on the things he
has 10 say.
He goes into restaurant and drops into
seat
And wonders why they've not a thing fit
for a dog 10 eat
And III you care TO seek the cause that
makes him feel SO brown
You'll not have very far 70 look; his wife
is out Of town.
We see another man dressed up unusually
gay,
He wears smile of gladness and a but
tonhoie boquet;
He joins the crushing parties where the
white-topped schooners sail,
And goo-goos all the pretty girls who
chance 10 cross his trail.
At striking of the midnight hour he yet is
on the street,
Is strenuous in his efforts TO control his
wabbling feet;
He wears his hat tipped sideways on his
eer-befuddled crown;
The mousey knows the cats away; his
wife is out OF town.
