WITH APOLOGIES TO KIPLING

When you’ve journeyed into Greymoutli and you’ve walked about the street, And you’ve looked in all the shops there are in town, Just kindly walk to Easson’sand step inside the door. And you’ll find the things you want are there galore, For you’r Absent Minded Beggars, and you may forget to call ; And we think it only right we should remind you, That if you call at Easson’s you’ll not forget the day, You started first your Furniture to buy there,

Washstands, Hallstands, guaranteed sound for years. Forty thousand other lines are sold there every day ; Everyone gettin their moneys worth, And also got time to pay ; Furnish your house at Easson’s shope. ’Twill pay, pay, pay.

There arc families by thousands far to proud to beg or steal, And they havent got the cash to fix the crib, They haven’t got a sideboard, and they haven’t got a bed, And they haven’t got the plates to have a meal. They can get them all at Easson’s and Ihe payments are but small, If they cnly pay them reg’lar they won’t miss them, They pay a small deposit, the rest they pay per week, And then the debt it soon gets left behind them. Feather beds, flock beds, beds that are made from straw, You needn’tbe frightened of buying the lot, you’ll find they have plenty more. They can furuish the home from beginning to end, , At the price you are sure to say, Go to E isson’s to furnish your house, T’will pay, pay, pay.
