Millinerymania

Did you ever see such sights?

Such frizzly, frazzly frights

As now the lovely fair

Insist that they must wear?

And, say,

Did you ever, in your feeble way,

Attempt to calculate

What it must be to keep one on straight?

Heavens to Betsy, no slob

Could get away with such a job!

That's why no man

Could wear the hat a woman can

And does, and thinks

She's not at all gezinx.

Wow,

Ain't they the dowdydow?

The hats, not the women.

The Autumn Lid,

Deliriously displayed,

Has got the Merry Wid

Screaming screams for aid.

Police! Police!

Call out the cops

To save the ladies

From their tops.

Oh, woman, in your hours of ease,

Uncertain, coy and hard to please,

Who ever gave you lids like these?

Who is it has designed

Such cover for your mind?

This framework in a rag?

This millinery jag?

Who done it? Who

Should get the fearful due?

However, it's no matter

Who is the women's hatter,

They wear the goods!

And say,

On the level,

Don't they

Look like the dickens?

Gee whiz,

Why look pazziz,

When a woman's as pretty as a woman is?
