Poem
To buy for school a copy-book I asked my Dad for two-pence; He gave it with a gentle look, Although he had but few pence. 'Twas then I proved myself a crook And came a moral cropper, I bought a penny copy-book And blued the other copper. I spent it on a sausage roll Gulped down with guilt suggestion, To the damnation of my soul And awful indigestion. Poor Dad! His job was hard to hold; His mouths to feed were many; Were he alive a millionfold I'd pay him for his penny. Now nigh the grave I think with grief, Though other sins are many, I am a liar and a thief 'Cause once I stole a penny: Yet be he pious as a friar It is my firm believing, That every man has been a liar And most of us done thieving.
