Seesaw Marjorie Doll
Rocking horse rides among toy balloon memories.
Turning back pages in gay-colored picture books,
Childhood return, forget how tomorrow looks.
Dick and Jane reader, your mind, if it closes,
You can't face the future. Sing ring round the roses,
All fall down, all fall down.
Little Jack Horner alone in his corner,
Pistols and panda bears Wanderin', Wanderin'.
Let's play nurses and let's play doctors,
Set out the teacups and pull up the rockers.
Out in the playhouse we'll run and we'll hide,
And pretend that we're generals bursting with pride.
Bang, I got you! Bang, I got you!
Where is Tom, the piper's son?
Clown suits and circuses, here comes the peanut man.
Let's play hide and go seek, maybe hit the dam.
You'll be the mommy and I'll be the daddy man.
Filled with the naked logs, house is so fine,
The toy soldiers can march down the street in a line.
All in free, all in free.
Old mother Hubbard, her cupboard's still bare,
Run to the backyard, it's your turn at bat again.
Let's build a treehouse of plywood and two-by-fours,
Build us a raft and sail off to some distant shores.
Halloween face in a brown paper bag,
Round up the gang and we'll run and play tag.
Tag you're it! Tag you're it!
All in free, Bang, I got you!
All fall down.
