A lady came into a storeWhere animals were sold, To buy a parrot with a tongueThat wouldnt swear or scold; But as she talked about the bird And asked about the price,The bullet plunged clean through a boK And freed a lot of mice! … Old Hagenschmit, behind his house,His new Dutch pipe was trying, When—bing! the bullet smashed the bowlAnd sent the pieces flying! f Who put dot bombshell in my pipe ?**Exclaimed the startled smoker. If I could git my hands on him,Dere would be vone less joker¥
