Eight Merry Maids of Montrose

The eight merry maids of Montrose Quite vexed that they can't touch their toes began a regime they worked as a team but by Fall could just touch their nose Discouraged they wept and just sat Why couldn't they trim all that fat? the plan was supreme they all had a dream Their plan was to eat cake and chat !
