Jingles And Jests

Jingles and Jests.

The Moving Man.

Here comes the moving man once more! 

Now tremble, one and all!

Those sorrows that you knew of yore 

Again are due to fall.

The dust shall rise and fill your eyes,

And 'neath a housewife's ban

You'll wander, homeless, 'neath the skies

Here comes the moving man!

Your statuary shall be chipped;

Your pictures shall be torn;

Your meals shall now and then be skipped;

You'll wish you'd ne'er been born.

Let chaos reign in every room!

Give up your cherished plan;

Resign yourself to utter gloom;

Here comes the moving man!
