Happiness v. Unhappiness
The Wowsers are unhappy, The Sports are happy. The Wowsers think that they can render themselves less unhappy By making the Sports less happy. It can’t be done. Even if the Wowsers reached tho height of their ambition By reducing the Sports to tho depths of despondency They wouldn’t cheer up so you could notice, > For they are congenitally unhappy, And the Sports refuse to be lest than happy anyway. The only thing that would do a Wowser good — Is a Wanganui of ale through the oesophagus. And he hasn’t got sense enough to try it ! —HE Ml. c= - - -~=j
