| You have baked me too brown I must sugar my hair | A |

| Trims his belt and buttons and turns out his toes | B |
| When the sands are all dry he is gay as a lark | C |

| His voice has a timid and tremulous sound | D |

| The Panther took pie crust and gravy and meat | F |
| While the Owl had the dish as its share of the treat | F |
| When the pie was all finished the Owl as a boon | G |
| Was kindly permitted to pocket the spoon | G |
| While the Panther received knife and fork with a growl | H |
| And concluded the banquet by | E |
