      The king of Marigold was in the kitchen 
        Cooking breakfast for the queen

      Cry baby cry 
        Make your mother sigh 
        She`s old enough to know better

      The duchess of Kircaldy always smiling 
        And arriving late for tea

      At twelve o`clock a meeting round the table 
        For a seance in the dark 
        With voices out of nowhere 
        Put on specially by the children for a lark.

        Make your mother sigh.
