Quite Undone
Go to your room you naughty child
I’ll come to see you in a while
Think about what you have done
And you’ll see why you have no fun
Your sister’s nose is black and blue
Think about your choice of hue
You have it coming to you my son
And you’ll not be the only one
Here I come with book in hand
Here son come here and stand
You have no idea what is to come
And at the end you’ll be quite undone
See here this page on the right
It has given me a little fright
For in it is a picture of you
With you face all black and blue
Don’t cry my son, it’s not that bad
Even though it makes me so very sad
For I see that you are torn up inside
And in this place you’ll not abide
Read the caption that has no joy
Why is it speaking to you my boy?
You’ll have to turn away from wrath
And take the pain from the sibling’s path
Only on this condition must you dwell
Before your visage begins to swell
And take in your arms your sister now
And to her you will scrape and bow
You will serve for quite a while
And do it while you’re a still a child
In this lies your saving grace
If you try to save your sister’s face.
