Thread Name: Origi:When the train is in the station(Humoresque)
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: When the train is in the station
Roger: That's _The Dirty Song Book_. It also supplies the missing lines in the stanza Rapaire gives:
Picture, please, your consternation
And your righteous indignation
If, etc.
and, FWIW, the following insipid stanza:
Nothing looks much better
Than a girl who wears a sweater,
Though she may not be as big as
She appears.
Remember, boys, before you wed 'er,
Better look inside the sweater --
Or your wedding night
May end in tears.
Doesn't even scan.
