Full text of verse [sic]:
At six o'clock from sleep I wake
By Kendal who my pillows shake,
Will you get up you lazy Carr?
The sun o'er chimney-pots a far
Is rising and tis deep transgression
To sleep and miss todays procession
Oh, slowly out of bed we rise
With woeful, weary, sleepy eyes,
Tis half-way dark and chilly too
And Kendals nose is red and blue.

Dong, Dong goes the deafening gong
Fixing ties belts and collars we hurry along.
And down the long staircase hurridly flock
Giving poor Mrs. Dodd a considerable shock
For every morning we're always late
For breakfast served at half past eight.

No chairs or stools should be allowed,
To persons standing in the crowd

Now Kendal and the Bobbey had a hot and heavy fight
Kendal pounded the poor Bobbey with all of her puny might,
For the Bobbey pushed her back for some much belated swells
And she struck the sollid Bobbey with her bag of caamels
Mid the scuffle that ensured my stool was borne away
Its services did not avail to raise my height that day
I could not stop to pick it up the crowd was so intense
I only wished I were'nt so short and longed to be immense

On our tippest, tippest, tiptoes
With our necks stretch nigh to crack,
It is coming, we are watching
Opened eyes and stiffened back

I saw a corner of the pall
And Kendal saw the Kaiser
But what went on before, behind
We both were none the wiser.

The next few days were very bad
Both for Kendal and for me
I lay in bed, with an aching head
She wearily brought me tea,
And we talked it over gravely
All the squeezing and the pain,
And we said, mid a crowd in London,
We would never go again.
