AT BREAK-FAST.

Previous
A gay lit-tle bird
That want-ed some fun
Flew in and light-ed
On the ba-by’s bun.
He pecked at a cur-rant,
He sipped from the cup,
Then hopped on the loaf,
And thus piped up:
Peep-sy weeps! Ba-by, say,
What’ll you give if I will stay?
Peep-sy weeps! Ba-by, O,
What’ll you give if I will go?”
baby looking at bird perched at edge of high chair
AN AS-TON-ISHED BA-BY.
He splashed the milk,
He nib-bled the bread,
He spread both wings,
He stood on his head.
But still the ba-by
Said nev-er a word—
And out of the win-dow
Flashed the bird!
Peep-sy weeps!” loud sang he,
“Such a stu-pid ba-by I nev-er did see!
Nev-er a smile, nev-er a word—
Peep-sy weeps! I’m glad I’m a bird!”
