The Camel's hump is an ugly lump Which well you may see at the Zoo;
But uglier yet is the hump we get From having too little to do.
Kiddies and grown-ups too-oo-oo,
If we haven't enough to do-oo-oo,
We get the hump-Cameelious hump- The hump that is black and blue!
We climb out of bed with a frouzly head,
And a snarly-yarly voice.
We shiver and scowl and we grunt and we growl At our bath and our boots and our toys;
And there ought to be a corner for me (And I know' there is one for you)When we get the hump- Cameelious hump- The hump that is black and blue!
The cure for this ill is not to sit still,
Or frowst with a book by the fire;
But to take a large hoe and a shovel also,
And dig till you gently perspire;
And then you will find that the sun and the wind,
And the Djinn of the Garden too,
Have lifted the hump- The horrible hump- The hump that is black and blue!
I get it as well as you-oo-oo- If I haven't enough to do-oo-oo!
We all get hump- Cameelious hump- Kiddies and grown-ups too!
