THE BEST ROOM
The drawing-room is a fine room, A lofty room, a stately room, With lots of cushions of silk brocade And beautiful furniture, all inlaid; But so many thing I mustn't touch— I don’t like the drawing-room very much. The library is a dark room, A solemn room, a dismal room; There are rows of bookshelves everywhere, With hundreds of volumes old and * rare. But I can’t read them, and so you see, The library's not the place for me. But my room is a little room, A shabby room, a cosy room; There’s a rocking-horse that will really rock, And a window seat and a cuckoo clock. And though the carpet is splashed with ink, It’s the jolliest room in the house, r think.
