That Popular Song.
(From the Bulldog)
The first time I heard it
I thought it was "cute,”
And I whistled it gaily
And sang it, to boot.
But I shortly discovered.
With gloomy dismay,
That everyone else
Was afflicted that way.
They hummed, whistled, played,
And attempted to croon
The catchy refrain
Of that popular tune.
Ere the end of the month
I was longing to be
