Little Willie

Willie looking in the gun
Pulls the trigger just for fun.
Mother says in tones so pained,
"Willie is so scatter-brained!".

Willie bashed open baby’s head
To see if brains are gray or red
What a naughty boy is he
He shall have no jam for tea.

Willie saw some dynamite,
Couldn’t understand it quite;
Curiosity never pays.
It rained Willie seven days.

Little Willie found a mirror,
Went and sucked the mercury off,
Thinking in his childish error,
It would cure his whooping cough.
At the funeral, Willie’s mother
Sadly said to Mrs. Brown,
“‘Twas a chilly day for Willie
When the mercury went down.”

Willie fell down the elevator,
Wasn’t found ’till six days later.
Then the neighbors sniffed, “Gee whiz!
What a spoiled child Willie is!”
