So for hours we pondered, we scratched and we scrawtedg We twisted, contortect, resorted to stangg We tested and tried tilt our heads were near hatd-1 But we still hadn,t gotten the Hhangf, , Then we finally decided to leave it Has ish To he true to the verse and forget to he kind, To say anything that comes into our heads-f As long as we get it to rhyme. The Frantcentield sisters we,H never forget, such a charming and lovely pair They have a sort of Hpocono twangnf-hut what heautiful curly hair! Gr Tommy who is wise in ways she hasntt gleaned from hooks: Vve would,n,t want her funny strut-'hut geet Weyd love her looks! s. Miss Hastie we with envy view, she's quite the perfect nurseg Has beauty, poiseg hut is she slow? fthis verse is getting worsej. Now Betsy Johnson, there's a gait hlue eyes that shine like stars,-4 But so darn thin a puff of wind might shoot her up to Mars. That noisy little Simmons girl-'can we forget her? never! Her chuhhy cheeks, her coitish ways, her efforts to he clever. Miss Mcllhatten we all Ioveg of course, she's never quiet. ' She sings and shouts, cavorts ahout, grows stout, and laughs at diet. We Worry so ahout Miss Koch, dark heauty, charming ways: A real ma.n's girlf' hut miles away, in fact, she's in an daze. The hahy of your freakish class, that tiny Richwine elf, Puts alcohol tags on patients' wrists, and patients on the shelf. A curly head, a southern drawl, has little Dolly Bowen. Shes always in the smoking room. Smoking? dear not sewin,. Now Alta with her raucous voice, disturhs our needed rest. A real good sport in spite of that, we count her 'mong the hest. Qur Ahhie Dale'-fa lovely girl with eyes so dark and deep-1 A little on the heavy side, hut not from too much sleep! Miss Hall is famous for her grace, we,ve never seen her hustle: But still she seems to get ahout, escorted hy her Russell. Now Miss MacKenzie has us stumped, she acts so meek and mild: K But we hear she tosses shoes and shouts when someone gets her riled. Miss Von Steuhen missed her calling, we're sure you,H all agree, A Barrett or a Barrymore is what she ought to he. Vvho terrorizes prohies? Who keeps us all in awe? I guess we aggravate her toog-apoI0gi6S, Miss SIUIW- Betty and Dot you can them: Jitterhugs we all titterg WE know the secret password, and Boy-kin they jitter! Miss Butler is a hit ahrupt, a domineering missg We hope when wed to Milton he,H change a hit of this. The carrot tops who numher fourg Ida, Eleanor, Betty, Sally Add color to a drah array. Enough of this! Finale! '59
