Subject: RE: Lyr Req/Add: Polar Bear and Crocodile (D Stevens)
As I recall, the third verse version I learned as a kid went:
. . .

"Now, we poor unfortunates live in a clime
Where oft is required three full suits at a time;
A thick one for cold days, a thin one for hot,
And a medium-weight for the days that are not.

Too-ra-lee, Too-ra-lay,
And a medium weight for the days that are not."

[Ah, those were days with frequent moments of joy . . .(sigh)]
