Augustus And The Soup

Augustus was a chubby lad

Great fat ruddy cheeks Augustus had

He always did as he was told

And he never let his soup get cold

So everybody saw they saw with joy

The hale and hearty healthy boy

But then one day one sad fateful day

He cried out take that nasty soup away

The second day comes the picture shows

How weak and thin Augustus grows

But when the soup is put on the table

He cries out loud as he is able

The third day comes oh what a sin

Augustus grows so pale and thin

Yet though he grows so weak and ill

He cries out cries out cries out still

Take that nasty soup away

I don’t want any soup today

The fourth day comes the fourth day comes

And he scarcely weighs a sugar plum

He’s like a little bit of thread

And on the fifth day the fifth day the fifth day

He was dead
