How The Camel Got His Hump (Rudyard Kipling)

The camel's hump is an ugly lump
Which well you may see at the zoo;
But uglier yet is the hump that we get
From having too little to do.

Kiddies and grown-ups too-oo-oo,
If we haven't enough to do-oo-oo,
We get the hump--
Cameleious hump--
The hump that is black and blue!

We climb out of bed with a fuzzy head,
And a snarly scary voice.
We shiver and scowl and we grunt and we growl
At our bath and our boots and our toys;

And there ought to be a corner for me
(And I know there is a corner for you)
When we get the hump--
Cameleious hump--
The hump that is black and blue!

The cure for this ill is not to sit still,
Or roost with a book by the fire;
But to take a large hoe and a shovel also,
And dig till you gently perspire;

And then you will find that the sun and the wind,
And the Djinn of the garden too,
Have lifted the hump--
Cameleious hump--
The hump that is black and blue!

I get it as well as you-oo-oo--
If I haven't enough to do-oo-oo!
We all get the hump--
Cameleious hump--
Kiddies and grown-ups too!
