The Lyrics
Baking pies and cakes all day,
Putting shots of rye away.
Slashed open is one large pie;
Inside it what do they spy?
Birds that sing and start to fly.
Twenty-four baked in that pie.
What a dainty dish to place
In front of the regal face.
In his counting house he makes
Tolls of all the dough he takes.
Bread and honey the queen eyes.
Twenty-four baked in that pie.
In the garden, the maid keeps
Hanging clothes, but then she weeps
When a bird swoops to filet
Her nose and takes it away.
To that schnozz she waves "bye-bye."
Twenty-four baked in that pie.
Putting shots of rye away.
Slashed open is one large pie;
Inside it what do they spy?
Birds that sing and start to fly.
Twenty-four baked in that pie.
What a dainty dish to place
In front of the regal face.
In his counting house he makes
Tolls of all the dough he takes.
Bread and honey the queen eyes.
Twenty-four baked in that pie.
In the garden, the maid keeps
Hanging clothes, but then she weeps
When a bird swoops to filet
Her nose and takes it away.
To that schnozz she waves "bye-bye."
Twenty-four baked in that pie.

Fun stroll thru that delightful vintage nursery rhyme
Captain Jack, this is qute poetic, and I like it very much, sir ! However I must agree with ~MsPriggy~ on your township's taste in Art!
This one's definitely for the birds. All 24 of them, that is ;>)
Wish the rhymes were that cool when I was kid - Nice! 555

Just ran across this one John. Delightful. No pie in the sky here.
