'O and where are you going?'

said the False False Fly
|
To the lovely little child on the road
|
'I am going to my school,'
|
said the lovely little child
|
She was only but seven years old
|
|
'O what have you in your bag?'
|
said the False False Fly
|
To the lovely little child on the road
|
'Me bread and me books,'
|
said the lovely little child
|
She was only but seven years old
|
|
'Will you come along with me?'
|
said the False False Fly
|
To the lovely little child on the road
|
'No, I won't come with you,'
|
said the lovely little child
|
She was only but seven years old
|
|
'I will give you a ball,'
|
said the False False Fly
|
To the lovely little child on the road
|
'Ah, but you'd be Lord of all,'
|
said the lovely little child
|
She was only but seven years old
|
|
'What is rounder than a ball?'
|
said the False False Fly
|
To the lovely little child on the road
|
'The earth is rounder than a ball,'
|
said the lovely little child
|
She was only but seven years old
|
|
'What is higher than the sky?'
|

|
To the lovely little child on the road
|
'Heaven is higher than the sky,'
|
said the lovely little child
|
She was only but seven years old
|

'What is deeper than the sea?'
|
said the False False Fly
|
To the lovely little child on the road
|
'Hell is deeper than the sea,'
|
said the lovely little child
|
She was only but seven years old
|
|
Then he flew away in flames
|
Did the False False Fly
|
From the lovely little child on the road
|
'Twas the devil in disguise
|
Was the False False Fly'
|
Said the lovely little child on the road
