"I wondered lonely as a ...
They're in the top drawer, William,
Under your socks -
I wondered lonely as a -
No not that drawer, the top one.
I wondered by myself -
Well wear the ones you can find.

Well put some butter in it.

It's on the peg. Under your hat.
I'll bring my pad, shall I, just in case
You want to jot something down?"
