Yon Lion's 'et Albert',<br>And Mother said 'Well, I am vexed!'</div><div style="margin:10px 0">Then Mr and Mrs Ramsbottom -<br>Quite rightly, when all's said and done -<br>Complained to the Animal Keeper,<br>That the Lion had eaten their son.</div><div style="margin:10px 0">The keeper was quite nice about it;<br>He said 'What a nasty mishap.<br>Are you sure that it's your boy he's eaten?'<br>Pa said &quot;Am I sure? There's his cap!'</div><div style="margin:10px 0">The manager had to be sent for.<br>He came and he said 'What's to do?'<br>Pa said 'Yon Lion's 'et Albert,<br>'And 'im in his Sunday clothes, too.'</div><div style="margin:10px 0">Then Mother said, 'Right's right, young feller;<br>I think it's a shame and a sin,<br>For a lion to go and eat Albert,<br>And after we've paid to come in.'</div><div style="margin:10px 0">The manager wanted no trouble,<br>He took out his purse right away,<br>Saying 'How much to settle the matter?'<br>And Pa said &quot;What do you usually pay?'</div><div style="margin:10px 0">But Mother had turned a bit awkward<br>When she thought where her Albert had gone.<br>She said 'No! someone's got to be summonsed' -<br>So that was decided upon.</div><div style="margin:10px 0">Then off they went to the P'lice Station,<br>In front of the Magistrate chap;<br>They told 'im what happened to Albert,<br>And proved it by showing his cap.</div><div style="margin:10px 0">The Magistrate gave his opinion<br>That no one was really to blame<br>And he said that he hoped the Ramsbottoms<br>Would have further sons to their name.</div><div style="margin:10px 0">At that Mother got proper blazing,<br>'And thank you, sir, kindly,' said she.<br>'What waste all our lives raising children<br>To feed ruddy Lions? Not me!'</div><div style="margin:10px 0"><br /></a><br />poem by <a href="http://en.citatepedia.ro/by.php?a=Marriott+Edgar">Marriott Edgar</a><div class=q>
