In Frisco bay there lives a whale
And she eats pork chops by the pail
By the hatbox, by the pillbox
By the hogshead and schooner

But don't leave food within her reach
Or babies, or nursemaids / airedales
Or chocolate ice cream sodas

She loves to laugh and...

She knows no games so...

The balloon turned up with...
