Now it’s true I like my jingles
It’s an awful lot of fun,
And I write on any subject–
That is, all save only one.
For there’s one thing I can’t write on
Cannot contemplate with glee:
That’s the college lad or lassie,
For they’re castor oil to me!
I started with drawing pictures, and
Things went from bad to worse.
The drawings were bad, but Oh! how sad
When I drifted to writing verse.
