Rhyme Scheme: ABCDCDABEEBBBBABFFEB EBABGGHIHIABBBJKJKAB CCBBBBAB| All day long they come and go | A |
| Pittypat and Tippytoe | B |
| Footprints up and down the hall | C |
| Playthings scattered on the floor | D |
| Finger marks along the wall | C |
| Tell tale smudges on the door | D |
| By these presents you shall know | A |
| Pittypat and Tippytoe | B |
| How they riot at their play | E |
| And a dozen times a day | E |
| In they troop demanding bread | B |
| Only buttered bread will do | B |
| And the butter must be spread | B |
| Inches thick with sugar too | B |
| And I never can say No | A |
| Pittypat and Tippytoe | B |
| Sometimes there are griefs to soothe | F |
| Sometimes ruffled brows to smooth | F |
| For I much regret to say | E |
| Tippytoe and Pittypat | B |
| Sometimes interrupt their play | E |
| With an internecine spat | B |
| Fie for shame to quarrel so | A |
| Pittypat and Tippytoe | B |
| Oh the thousand worrying things | G |
| Every day recurrent brings | G |
| Hands to scrub and hair to brush | H |
| Search for playthings gone amiss | I |
| Many a wee complaint to hush | H |
| Many a little bump to kiss | I |
| Life seems one vain fleeting show | A |
| To Pittypat and Tippytoe | B |
| And when day is at an end | B |
| There are little duds to mend | B |
| Little frocks are strangely torn | J |
| Little shows great holes reveal | K |
| Little hose but one day worn | J |
| Rudely yawn at toe and heel | K |
| Who but you could work such woe | A |
| Pittypat and Tippytoe | B |
| On the floor and down the hall | C |
| Rudely smutched upon the wall | C |
| There are proofs in every kind | B |
| Of the havoc they have wrought | B |
| And upon my heart you'd find | B |
| Just such trade marks if you sought | B |
| Oh how glad I am 'tis so | A |
| Pittypat and Tippytoe | B |
