Once I’ve elbowed a small hobbit, and I’ve dented Frankles bonnet And I’ve squashed dear Mrs H...there’s room for me, Mrs P. So my hoop skirt stays uncrumpled and my hair remains unrumpled And my friends should view their lack of extra space With poise and grace. I have brought some random knitting as I’m not a girl for sitting Doing nothing in this cupboard, like my friends, Until this ends. Though the others may be moping, I am valiantly coping And my needles aren’t a hazard, not a bit, Whilst I knit. We’ll be freed when mops are needed, or our plight won’t go unheeded If the doctor or inspector can’t resist A little tryst. I shall keep the ladies cheerful, and rebuke them if they’re tearful When all seems lost, I truly can attest I’m at my best.

So my hoop skirt stays uncrumpled and my hair remains unrumpled
And my friends should view their lack of extra space
With poise and grace.
I have brought some random knitting as I’m not a girl for sitting
Doing nothing in this cupboard, like my friends,
Until this ends.
Though the others may be moping, I am valiantly coping
And my needles aren’t a hazard, not a bit,
Whilst I knit.
We’ll be freed when mops are needed, or our plight won’t go unheeded
If the doctor or inspector can’t resist
A little tryst.
I shall keep the ladies cheerful, and rebuke them if they’re tearful
When all seems lost, I truly can attest
I’m at my best.
