WEEP SONG

By Frank Leslie Thomson Wilmot

Strike, strike, strike again,

Bump them on the head;

Every minute somebody,

Falls down dead.

Algernons and Berts

Washing out their shirts,

Babies in the bed

Crying for some bread.

Gentlemen with brains,

Looking for their trains.

Strike, strike, strike again,

Always on the head;

Every minute somebody

Drops down dead.
