Groatz's Song

Groatz's Song.

Beneath these waving palms,
I feel decided qualms.
I've wandered far from home,
Over sea—over foam.
For death I'm unprepared;
I really can't be spared.
I'll make my meaning clear—

[Whispers "Cannibals!"]
That's what I fear!
Should they my form descry,
It's evident that I
Would end as a rabbit pie!
Never more would I roam,
Far from friends, far from home,
Over sea—o'er foam.
