How Is Your Upper Story? 1902

How is your upper story,
at morning noon or night?
How is your upper story,
the room above your sight?
Was the room ever vacant,
in trouble you may be?
It is the only storeroom
that ever troubled me,
It is the highest occupant
for knowledge is the test;
And it may be your fortune
to have more than the rest.

The upper story cultivate
the room below your hat,
it's worthy of attention,
till greyer than a rat.
Because it belongs to you,
and it belongs to Pat,
And each one can elevate,
and dwell within the flat.

How is your upper story,
When the taxes are due?
How is your upper story,
When your business is blue?
If all the room was vacant,
You couldn't have an ache,
And when the time is loving,
you never feel to hate.
The upper story is the best
for ev'ry kind of mind,
It holds a world of knowledge,
To make or mar mankind.

The upper story cultivate
the room below your hat,
it's worthy of attention,
till greyer than a rat.
Because it belongs to you,
and it belongs to Pat,
And each one can elevate,
and dwell within the flat.

The upper story cultivate
the room below your hat,
it's worthy of attention,
till greyer than a rat.
Because it belongs to you,
and it belongs to Pat,
And each one can elevate,
and dwell within the flat.
