SISTER SADIE SAYS
Who spoils my things, who tears my books, Who breaks my doll, Inside to look? My brother. Who pulls my hair and pinches me? Who hits me, and then laughs with glee? My brother. And who knocks down the stately tower. In building which I spent an hour? My brother. And if I read a story gay, Who spoils It with his cry of “Play?” My brother. If mummy sweets or cakes can spare, Who always takes the biggest share? My brother. “A very naughty boy,” you fear. Oh, no! He’s just a perfect dear— My brother.
