Horace and Maurice were so like each other- / You hardly could tell the one from his brother. / If mama should say,"Now Ann, bring me Horace," / Why, likely as not, she'd go and get Maurice, / The only difference between the two / Was Maurice had brown eyes, and Horace had blue.
Of course though, their mama could tell them apart, / For it was a matter so near to her heart, / And if we said, "Really I don't know, I own, / Which one has the blue eyes, and which has the brown. " / Mama would say, "Dear me, I thought that you knew / That Maurice has brown eyes, and Horace has blue. "
