The Plumber

The plumber came, and the plumber pounded;
His wrenches rang and his hammer sounded;
He rattled the kitchen and shook the hall.;
And he sang and he whistled over it all.
Whenever I managed to get near him,
He’d talk to me, but I couldn’t hear him.
Plumbers, I guess, are grown-up boys
Who never have to stop making noise.
