Oh, dear, how will it end?

Peggy and Susie how naughty you are.

You little know where you are,

Going so far, and so high,

Nearly up to the sky.

Perhaps it's a Giant who lives there,

And perhaps it's a lovely Princess.

But you very well know

You've no business to go;

You'll get yourselves into a mess.

Oh, dear, I'm sure it is true;

Whatever on earth can it matter to you?

For you know it—oh, fie—

That it's naughty to pry

Into other's affairs—

Into other folks houses to go,

Where you know

You're not asked.

So you'd better come back

While there's time, it is plain.

Go home—and be never

So naughty again.
