ANIMATED
Good Evening.

Dancing figures on the screen, Hear the children shout! Every little girl and boy Knows what it's all about. First comes Donald Duck, Then his cousin Gus, Merrily they jump about
 With very little fuss. Popeye is an eyeful And so is Olive Oyle, Every single animated show Goes according to Hoyle. The grownups like chuckle And follow every antic, No lurid doings here To drive person frantic. Merrie Melodies do a flash, The audience with laughter rock, Oh my! did you see that cat Swallow the cuckoo in the clock? Dancing figures on the screen, Hear the children shout! Every little girl and boy Knows what it's all about.
