The Twins |
There were two brothers John and James |
And when the town went up in flames |
To save the house of James dashed John |
Then turned, and lo! |
His own was gone |
And when the great World War began |
To volunteer John promptly ran: |
And while he learned live bombs to lob |
James stayed at home and? |
sneaked his job |
John came home with a missing limb; |
That didn’t seem to worry him; |
But oh, it set his brain awhirl |
To find that James had? |
sneaked his girl! |
Time passed. |
John tried his grief to drown; |
To-day James owns one half the town; |
His army contracts riches yield; |
And John? |
Well, search the Potter’s Field |
