My very own little sister, / Isn't she bright, / For such a mite? / She is so wee, / I wonder if she / Would cry, and scream, if I kissed her.
Say, will she break if I hold her? / How queer that some day / She'll learn how to say, / Twice two are four- / And many things more- / And go to school when she's older.
Fancy those tiny feet running. / Isn't it queer / To think she is here? / To think she will grow? / I'd just like to know / What does make babies so cunning.
