An individualistic cock | B |
Proclaims the fact | C |
The dissipated cat sneaks home forlorn | A |
'Tis time to get up and act | C |
'Tis eight o'clock | B |
The stern and stalwart anti Socialist | D |
Freeborn | E |
And independent citizen whose fist | F |
Is raised against all Socialistic schemes | G |
Wakes from the land o' dreams | G |
Nightmares of Sosh | H |
Gets up and has a wash | H |
In water from the Socialistic main | I |
Empties it down the Socialistic drain | I |
And giving his moustache the proper twist | F |
He then | J |
Breakfasts upon an egg | K |
Laid by some anti Socialistic | L |
Hen | J |
And as he chews | M |
Endeavours to peruse | M |
The news | M |
In some wise publication printing views | M |
That no right thinking man could grumble at | N |
And having scoffed the egg | K |
His hat | N |
He reaches from its peg | K |
Perambulates the Socialistic path | O |
But that | N |
Annoys him just as little as the bath | O |
Tho' both essentially are Sosh's works | P |
He never shirks | P |
Their use | P |
But much abuse | P |
Of Socialistic ideas without excuse | P |
Flavors his conversation in the train | I |
The Socialistic train | I |
But here again | J |
He is not heard to murmur or complain | I |
Against the train | I |
At length the hour | Q |
Of ten | J |
Strikes the Socialistic tower | Q |
And then | J |
He gains | P |
His office and enquires | P |
For letters and for wires | P |
Nor e'en complains | P |
They reach him thro' a Socialistic post | R |
There are a host | R |
Of letters quite a pile | S |
Some from his friends | P |
Ah See him smile | S |
Cursing the Labor party's aims and ends | P |
Here is a note | T |
Bidding him be content and of good cheer | U |
For in the House last night the Fusion vote | T |
Defeated Labor on the Telephone | V |
Discussion Wherefore charges won't be near | U |
As dear | U |
As he has cause to fear | U |
And that reminds him He rings on the 'phone | V |
And tells a friend | W |
At t'other end | W |
That Socialism's better left alone | V |
Says it emphatically thro' the 'phone | V |
The Socialistic 'phone | V |
That instrument | X |
The Government is running at a loss | P |
Of very much per cent | Y |
He knows that it is so | P |
But is he cross | P |
No | P |
He's quite content | Y |
So through the day | Z |
He goes his anti Socialistic way | Z |
Round and about | A2 |
The town | V |
Wearing the Socialistic pavement out | A2 |
Riding in Socialistic trams | P |
And damning damns | P |
When Socialism's mentioned with a frown | V |
As night comes down | V |
He scorns the Socialistic atmosphere | U |
Of a plain pub | B2 |
And beer | U |
And seeks his club | B2 |
While here | C2 |
He drinks | P |
And tells his fellow members what he thinks | P |
About the 'Labah pawty' and its claims | P |
And visionary aims | P |
They languidly remark 'Hear hear ' | D2 |
Then out once more | E2 |
And in a Socialistic tram and train | V |
On to suburbia and home again | V |
To his own door | E2 |
Then to his bed | F2 |
Laying his wise and proper thinking head | F2 |
In downy pillow deep | G2 |
He is about to dropp | G2 |
To sleep | G2 |
When 'Flop Flop | G2 |
Flop' | G2 |
What's that | N |
The cat | N |
Chasing an individualistic rat | N |
Nay 'tis the footfall of the midnight cop | G2 |
Echoing through | H2 |
The stilly night | I2 |
Telling that I and you | H2 |
Are guarded in our right | I2 |
He guards the persons and the propertee | I2 |
Of you and me | J2 |
He's a Socialistic institution too | I2 |
The man in blue | I2 |
No wonder WILLIAM SIKES | P |
Dislikes | P |
The whole blue Socialistic crew | I2 |
I wish he'd keep | G2 |
Still that cop | G2 |
I want to go to sleep | G2 |
Why does he keep | G2 |
Flop flop flop | G2 |
With his big feet | I2 |
Along the street | I2 |
Why can't he stop | G2 |
His Socialistic feet | I2 |
Why don't he change his beat | I2 |
Of all the rows I ever heard | I2 |
Upon my word | I2 |
When you stop to think of it | I2 |
A bit | I2 |
This Socialistic business is absurd | I2 |
