Snickerty Nick

His double stomach broke off first
And then his double chin—
If the Dwarf can find them floating away,
Perhaps he’ll bring them in,
Or else he’ll hang them on himself
And not be half so thin!

SPRING

[With a dandelion in her mouth]

Trundle him in the wheelbarrow
And dump him on the ground,
The way you dumped me yesterday
And see what I found,
A little picture of the sun
With sunbeams all around.

I’ll stick it in his buttonhole!

[She puts the dandelion in his buttonhole.]

Now you are a little dandy dude.

CHORUS

And we’ll dump him on the ground!
