Explore "Teasing" by Gelett Burgess on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
Tease to linger longer when your mother bids you go; / Tease to have a penny when your father answers, "No!"
Tease to have a story when your uncle doesn't please; / That's the way to be a Goop -- _tease, tease, tease! _
Hint about the carriage when there's only room for three; / Hint about the toys you like and every doll you see; / Hint about the candy, say you're fond of peppermint; / That's the way to be a Goop -- _hint, hint, hint! _
