2. Then little Maggie sings to him, And plays upon the harp; While rapid Robert, keen and slim, Cries, "Lazybones, look sharp!" And Lucy tickles with her wand, This sleepy, lazy boy; And one and all with tricks and jokes In teasing him take joy. 3. But Lazybones must take his nap Before he goes to bed: He does not move his weary limbs Or lift his heavy head. And though a dozen brewers' drays Should rumble o'er the stones, Not all the noise that they can make Would rouse Young Lazybones.
