| I’m so sad to think that I had to Drive you from your home so coolly.
|
| I’d be gaining nothing by remaining,
|
| What would Missus Grundy say?
|
| Her conventions, kindly recollect them!
|
| We must please respect them duly.
|
| My intrusion needs explaining;
|
| I felt my courage waning.
|
| Please, I beg don’t mention it!
|
| I should not mind a bit,
|
| But it has started raining.
|
| Oh, the rain comes a pitter, patter,
|
| And I’d like to be safe in bed.
|
| Skies are weeping, while the world is sleeping,
|
| Trouble heaping on our head.
|
| It is vain to remain and chatter,
|
| And to wait for a clearer sky,
|
| Helter skelter, I must fly for shelter
|
| Till the clouds roll by.
|
| What bad luck, It’s coming down in buckets;
|
| Have you an umbrella handy?
|
| I’ve a warm coat, waterproof, a storm coat,
|
| I shall be alright, I know.
|
| Later on, too, I will ward the grippe off,
|
| With a little nip of brandy.
|
| Or a glass of toddy draining,
|
| You’d find that more sustaining.
|
| Don’t be worried, I entreat,
|
| I’ve rubbers for my feet,
|
| So I don’t mind it raining. |
