BIG BROTHER

Our brother Clarence goes to school. He has a slate and a blue school-bag. He has a book and a copybook And a scholar's companion and a little slate rag.

He knows a boy named Joe B. Kirk, And he learns about c-a-t cat, And how to play one-two-sky-blue, And how to make a football out of a hat.

We climb up on the fence and gate And watch until he's small and dim, Far up the street, and he looks back To see if we keep on watching him.
