The Frog'S Chorus

AnonymousEnglish
"YAUP, yaup, yaup!" Said the croaking voice of a Frog: "A rainy day In the month of May, And plenty of room in the bog."
"Yaup, yaup, yaup!" Said the Frog as it hopped away: "The insects feed On the floating weed, And I'm hungry for dinner to-day."
"Yaup, yaup, yaup!" Said the Frog, as it splashed about: "Good neighbours all, When you hear me call, It is odd that you do not come out."
"Yaup, yaup, yaup!" Said the Frogs; "it is charming weather; We'll come and sup, When the moon is up, And we'll all of us croak together."
What's the news of the day, Good neighbour, I pray? They say the balloon Is gone up to the moon.
Cross-Patch, Draw the latch, Sit by the fire and spin; Take a cup, And drink it up, And call your neighbours in.
There was an old Crow Sat upon a clod. There's an end of my song, That's very odd.
Ding, dong, bell, Pussy's in the well. Who put her in? Little Tommy Green. Who pulled her out? Little Tommy Trout. What a naughty boy was that, Thus to drown poor Pussy Cat.
