In London City I evade	A
For charming Burlington Arcade	A
For thee in youth I met a maid	A
By name of Mazie	B
Who lost no time in telling me	B
The Ritz put up a topping tea	B
But having only shillings three	B
My smile was hazy	B
	-
Instead said I it might be sport	C
To take a bus to Hampton Court	C
Her manner I remarked was short	C
But she assented	C
We climbed on top and all the way	D
I held her hand I felt quite gay	D
Bu Mazie I regret to say	D
Seemed discontented	C
	-
In fact we almost had a tiff	E
It's true it rained and she was stiff	E
And all she did was sneeze and sniff	E
And shudder coldly	B
So I said Mazzie there's the maze	F
Let's frolic in its leafy ways	F
And buying tickets where one pays	F
I entered boldly	B
	-
The as the game is we were lots	G
We dashed and darted crissed and crossed	C
But Mazie she got vexed and sauced	C
Me rather smartly	B
There wasn't but us two about	C
We hollered no one heard our shout	C
The rain poured down Oh let's get out	C
Cried Mazie tartly	B
	-
Keep cool says I You fool says she	B
I'm sopping wet I want my tea	B
Please take me home she wailed to me	B
In accents bitter	H
Again we tried this way and that	C
Yet came to where we started at	C
And Mazie acted like a cat	C
A champion spitter	H
	-
She stomped and romped till all was blue	I
Then sought herself to find the clue	I
And when I saw her next 'twas through	I
A leafy screening	J
Come on she cooed and join me here	H
You'll take me to the Savoy dear	H
And Heidsieck shall our spirits cheer	H
I got her meaning	J
	-
And yet I sought her everywhere	H
I hurried here I scurried there	H
I took each likely lane I swar	H
As I surmised it	C
The suddenly I saw once more	H
Confronting me the exit door	H
And I was dashing through before	H
I realized it	C
	-
And there I spied a passing bus	K
Thinks I It's mean to leave her thus	K
But after all her fret and fuss	K
I can't abide her	H
So I sped back to London town	L
And grubbed alone for half a crown	L
On steak and kidney pie washed down	L
With sparkling cider	H
	-
But since I left that damsel fair	H
The thought she may have perished there	H
Of cold starvation and dispair	H
Nigh drives me crazy	B
So stranger if you should invade	C
The charming Burlington Arcade	C
Tell me if you behold a shade	C
Ghost of a most unhappy maid	C
By name of Mazie	B
