  Off go the fire-crackers, bang! bang! bang! Off go the fire-crackers, bang! bang! bang! Popguns all a-snapping, and banners all a-flapping,— Off go the fire-crackers, bang! bang! bang! Off the torpedoes go, crack! crack! crack! Off the torpedoes go, crack! crack! crack! Fish-horns all a-tooting, and schoolboys all a-hooting,— Off the torpedoes go, crack! crack! crack! Off go the fireworks, fizz! fizz! fizz! Off go the fireworks, fizz! fizz! fizz! Pin-wheels all a-turning, and fingers all a-burning,— Off go the fireworks, fizz! fizz! fizz! Off goes our little Ned, boo-hoo-hoo! Off goes our little Ned, boo-hoo-hoo! Big hole in his jacket, and another in his pocket, Half the hair singed off his head, Off goes our little Ned,— Mamma'll put him straight to bed, boo-hoo-hoo! |
