- Ladies and gentlemen, hoboes and tramps,
- Cross-eyed mosquitoes and bow-legged ants,
- I come before you to stand behind you,
- To tell you something I know nothing about.
- Next Thursday, which is Good Friday,
- There will be a Mother's Day meeting for fathers only;
- Admission is free, so pay at the door,
- Pull up a seat and sit on the floor.
- The topic to discuss...
- The crime that has never been committed.
- One fine day in the middle of the night,
- Two dead boys* got up to fight, [*or men]
- Back to back they faced each other,
- Drew their swords and shot each other,
- One was blind and the other couldn't, see
- So they chose a dummy for a referee.
- A blind man went to see fair play,
- A dumb man went to shout "hooray!"
- A paralysed donkey passing by,
- Kicked the blind man in the eye,
- Knocked him through a nine inch wall,
- Into a dry ditch and drowned them all,
- A deaf policeman heard the noise,
- And came to arrest the two dead boys,
- If you don't believe this story's true,
- Ask the blind man he saw it too!
