The Camels Hump

The Camel's hump is an ugly lump

Which well you may see at the Zoo;

But uglier yet is the hump we get

From having too little to do.

Kiddies and grown-ups too-oo-oo,

If we haven't enough to do-oo-oo,

We get the hump-

Cameelious hump-

The hump that is black and blue!

We climb out of bed with a frouzly head,

And a snarly-yarly voice.

We shiver and scowl and we grunt and we growl

At our bath and our boots and our toys;

And there ought to be a corner for me

(And I know' there is one for you)

When we get the hump-

Cameelious hump-

The hump that is black and blue!

The cure for this ill is not to sit still,

Or frowst with a book by the fire;

But to take a large hoe and a shovel also,

And dig till you gently perspire;

And then you will find that the sun and the wind,

And the Djinn of the Garden too,

Have lifted the hump-

The horrible hump-

The hump that is black and blue!

I get it as well as you-oo-oo-

If I haven't enough to do-oo-oo!

We all get hump-

Cameelious hump-

Kiddies and grown-ups too!
