Hum Drum Thumb
Hum Drum Thumb
Has a person ever put or placed a ban
On those putting marbles in their tin can
And after suffering much more bad news
All of his marbles he would loose.
More than likely what happened after that
Is some marbles had eyes looking like a cat
And after his hair out he started tearing,
Magic marble had become a big ball bearing.
Then for a longer while I will have waited
Discovered what started out soon equated
With what turned out to be a circle of events
Shoot marble wondering about consequences.
By my magic marble habit I had been overcome
Not only that sore became my right thumb
While shooting my marble through the clover
To my left thumb decided to change over.
I became dexthumbtherehes.
