It started just this way Someone was heard to say That he had it from very good source So it must be right, of course That it came from person of authority Who is reckoned by the majority To be an individual of sound views Who never misrepreSents the news. And as we started to say It came about this way, That friend of friend of a friend On whom you can well depend Told 8 cousin of the first party's aunt That it never pays to rant About what's happening right now Without getting in trouble, and how! So this bit of dope comes practically direct And it wouldn't be hard to detect Actually very many Discrepancies, If any. We give 1t to you first hand But don't quote us, we demand, Because you never know how story Appears when repeated-sorry. So keep this under your hat And let it go at that Nuns the word So we've heard.
