Madcap Marjorie 1901

Pouting lips,
and just a sweet blue eye,
Marjorie, disdainful stands;
Ev'ry one doth with the other vie,
granting all her sweet commands.
Glances round, this little maiden,
Prances she, with passion laden,
What was all the noise about?
Why was Marjorie put out?
Was she angry righteously?
No she wanted jam for tea!

Marjorie has had a love affair,
Smitten to the heart was she.
Love is very well,
as you're aware
if you take it easily;
He was dressed in Sugar Candy,
Rather soft, but such a dandy;
Well, d'you know the other morning,
He had vanished without warning,
never was he seen again;
Marjorie was in such pain.
Then they solved the myst'ry deep:
She had eaten her fiancée in her sleep.
