They're 1sring out ten thous- and ways, To beat the friendly naigh- Dor, No moss grows here on any chin, No waist becomes inflated, Dull days are counted as sin, Then slightly underiated. As eye meets eye around this mart. There flashes forth defiance For scandals here a dazzling art And c'lssing ;t pure science. Don't pass handclasp lightly by, But hfgure out by heck. That hand before the sweat Is dry. Might grab you by the neck. Just hold your tongue right in your head. And never breathe q word, And soon the very words you said, All over the town are heard. Oh we're q pes- sim0|tfc bunch. The towns just going to hell. And so we play our little hunch Fbr one thing we play well. It takes an awful lot of juice. To keep the tongue real busy. But after all what is the use, 1t makes a poor guy dizzy Let's get busy now and hustle, think 1t would be finer. Turn the tongue power into muscle. And sink q hole to China.
