The Time-table of Lazy-bones Grundy

by R. L. Stevenson

Lazy-bones Grundy

Must do sums for Monday.

"And today it is Tuesday",

Says lazy-bones Grundy,

"So, I'll do it on Wednesday,

If not — then on Thursday,

Or even on Friday,"

Says lazy-bones Grundy.

Now very soon comes Friday

And Saturday comes,

But lazy-bones Grundy

Has no time for sums.

"Never mind", says Grundy,

"I'll do it on Sunday 1"

Young and Old

by Charles Kingsley

When all the world is young, lad,

And all the trees are green;

And every goose a swan, lad,

And every lass a queen;

Then hey for boot and horse, lad,

And round the world away;

Young blood must have its course, lad,

And every dog his day.

When all the world is old, lad,

And all the trees are brown;

And all the sport is stale, lad,

And all the wheels run down;

Creep home, and take your place there,

The spent and maimed among:

God grant you find one face there,

You loved when all was young.

Song of the Train

by David McCord

Clickety-clack

Wheels on the track

This is the way

They begin to attack:

Click-ety-clack,

Click-ety-clack,

Click-ety-clack-ety;

Click-ety

Clack.

Clickety-clack,

Over the crack

Faster and faster

The song of the track:

Clickety-clack,

Clickety-clack,

Clickety, clackety,

Clackety

Clack.
