Nails
(Bow Wow Wow)
This worlds is like a bag of nails and some are very queer ones
Some are sharp and some are flat and some are very dear ones
Through sprigs and spikes and sparables, some little, great and small, sir
Some love nails with monstrous heads
And some love none at all sire
With me O dear O
Right fal a riddy iddy O dear O
Now the doctor nails you with a bill
That sometimes proves a sore nail
The undertaker wishes you were dead as any door nail
You'll often find a client to be nailing his employer
And the devil knows the lawyer
And the lawyer knows the devil
Now French monsieur's will get some clouts
If here they cause to ram, sir
Us Englishmen like hammers
Will be sure to drive them home, sir.
Now if I've gained your kind applause
For what I've done and said, sir
Now you will admit that I have
Hit the right nail on the head. Sir.
