I bowled three sanctified souls With three consecutive balls! What do I care if Blondin trod Over Niagara Falls? What do I care for the loon in the Pit Or the gilded earl in the Stalls? I bowled three curates once With three consecutive balls!
I caused three Protestant 'ducks' With three consecutive balls! Poets may rave of lily girls Dancing in marble halls! What do I care for a bevy of yachts, Or a dozen or so of yawls? I bowled three curates once With three consecutive balls!
