Twiddly Dee, Twiddly Dum

 

by The Unknown Poet

 

 

Twiddly dee, twiddly dum,

Ho hum, ho hum, ho hum.

I yawn, I sigh, I pass life by

Just twiddlin' da thumb.

 

While some go here, and some go there,

For you all go somewhere.

You work, you play, yet here I lay,

For I have not a care.

 

A tallyhe, a tallyho,

I have no where to go.

I laugh, I smile, but all the while

I ain't your average Joe.

 

I taste, I smell, I hear, I see,

But feel nothing in me.

I tick, I tock, but hear the clock,

In mocking misery.

 

I waste away another day

But what is there to say?

Ho hum, ho hum, twiddly dum,

Won’t matter anyway.
