White Bread and Butter
We have no jelly
We have no jam
The children mutter
What shall we now eat?
White bread and butter
We have no syrup
We have no honey
The children utter
What shall we now eat?
White bread and butter
We have no cream cheese
We have no cheese spread
The children find no peanut butter
What shall we now eat?
White bread and butter
We have no lunch meat
We have no avocados
The children stutter
What shall we now eat?
White bread and butter
We have no white bread?
We have no white bread!
The children blubber
What shall we now eat?
Another stick of butter.
