BALLADE OF ZAZZ
The wheeling biplane wings the air,
The swift destroyer cleaves the sea:
The tracer bullets whiz and tear;
Through space the hurting nebulm
Plunge to doom in maniac glee
But gosh who knows when they'll arriveD
The prototypes OF speed they be
And then there's Johustons forehand drive
From hill to hillock leaps the hare:
The robin fits from treo to treei
The gray coyote gets scare
And they say, oh where Is he?
The frisky chauffeur on a spree-
He makes pedestrians look alvel
Some snoke? You murmured 1t, machreel
And then there's Johnstons forehand drive
There's Alexanders fast one. There
Is Travers wallop from tho tee;
Creased lightning? And a bit to spare
These merit well the popeyed "Geer'
But multiply the lot by three
