oh SAN DID YOU SEE?

A crowd of girls one autumn night
think twas Halloween
Started out to have some fun
Thinking they'd not be seen.
They donned mems clothes and
slipped away,
Leaving the kids in bed;
That these seven girls were moth
ers young
Does not need to be said.
They first attacked the private
And tick-tacked loud and long,
Then they went out on the street
Altho twas very wrong.
A spreader of manure, they found,
And carried it away
And set it down in one mans yard,
For which they ought to pay.
They had just lots of fun, It's said
Ontll some glddy boys
Found out their plans and followed
them
And made lot of noise.
Until our marshal, young and brave
Appeared upon the scene
And thus seven mothers, sweet and
fair,
Ended their Halloween.
Now if you're sure you want to know
Who these young mothers were,
Initials straight we give herewith
P. H., j. n, K. B., j. G.,
V. G., NJ. M, v. E.)
Or if you would prefer,
Next week we'll print their names
in full,
I'm sure they will not care.
They had their fun; now we'll have
ours
Don't you concede that's fair?
