More grease to your elbows We say, I hear Why not? Why not? More paraffin to your elbows We will go on a honey-moon We say, I hear Why not? Why not? We will go on a sugar-noon Full-stop We say, I hear Why not? Why not Fool-stop Slap slapped, sleep slept We say, I hear Why not? Why not? Slap slapped, sleep sleeped I own ten sheep and fishes We say, I hear Why not? Why not? I own ten sheeps and fishes He is going to three stadia and banks We say, I hear Why not? Why not? He is going to three stadiums and banks Tall, taller and handsome, more handsome We say, I hear Why not? Why not? Tall, taller and handsome handsomer Give him his book, and give her, her book We say, I hear Why not? Why not? Give him, him book, and give her, her book Shall, should and must, must We say, I hear Why not? Why not? Shall and should and must, mould This world of nays and yays We say, I hear We say, I hear This world of ups and downs This crazy world of English Why not, why not Why not, why not Where I am so proud to be an alien.
