If you have a sore throat you can cure it by using a good goggeral If you have a sore foot you can get it fixed by a chiropodist And you can get your original sin removed by St. John the Bopodist Why then should this flocculent la**itude be incurable? Kansas City, Kansas, proves that even Kansas City needn't always be Missourible Up up my soul! This inaction is abominable Perhaps it is the result of disturbances abdominable The pilgrims settled Ma**achusetts in 1620 when they landed on a stone hummock Maybe if they were here now they would settle my stomach Oh, if I only had the wings of a bird Instead of being confined on Madison Avenue I could soar in a jiffy to Second or Third
