And little Minnie tears her dress
And all the babies cr
Oh dont sit doAvn and mope and sigh
And fret and worry so
But dress the kidlets and yourself
And see The Electric Picture ShoAv
When all the World looks blue to you
And you begin to fag
Your head to ache your heart to break
And appetite to flag
Just lock the door and leave your cares
Behind you as you go
And spend an hour of solid joy
