All the king's men


Humpty Dumpty sat on the wall.

Humpty Dumpty had a great fall.

How are our horses and I and these men,

Supposed to put this fool together again?

How is my horsed supposed to save an egg?

Will it put a hoof upside his head?

Would Humpty Dumpty not have died,

Should we have knocked his head upside?

But the sadness here today will not last,

Because now we’ve scrambled eggs for breakfast.
