By Marie Overton Corbin & Charles Buxton GoingS
A.sly old angler went a-fishing
His dinner for to win;
He opened wide his open face
And asked the fish-set in.
There was d whale up near the pole
And he was wondrous wise.
For lunch he ate an iceberg. whole
And froze up both his eyes
And when he saw his eyes were ice
With all his might and main
He drank the Gulf Stream in a trice.
NOT
And thawed them out again
HOT WATER
