Mister C came to see us today.
He said we were good girls and boys - hurray!
He said he'd give us a treat
If we got on our feet,
And he would not even make us all pay.
We were all very quiet in line.
We all took our turns, did our time.
And when we did eat,
It was all very neat,
Til someone stood up with a chime.
Said the small boy, "Have you not heard,
That Mister C is really a bird?"
And suddenly with that,
Mister C was a bat,
Chewing he said, "How absurd!"
