THE SQUIRREL by JOHN BANISTER TABB

First Line: WHO COMBS YOU, LITTLE SQUIRREL
Last Line: TO GET THE STOMACH-ACHE?
Subject(s): SQUIRRELS;
Who combs you, little Squirrel?
And do you twist and twirl
When some one puts the papers on
To keep your tail in curl?

And must you see the dentist
For every tooth you break?
And are you apt from eating nuts
To get the stomach-ache?
