Lyrics
(Traditional chant)
1888 version
Moses supposes his toes-es are roses,
Moses supposes erroneously,
For nobody’s toes-es are roses or posies,
As Moses supposes his toes-es to be.
1944 version
Moses supposes his toes-es are roses
But Moses supposes erroneously.
For Moses he knows-es his toes-es aren’t roses
As Moses supposes his toes-es to be.
