I posted about memory for a writing prompt.
But I couldn't remember all the words for one of the songs I listed. Within minutes my daughter, the smartest kid in the known universe, found and sent me the lyrics. And here they are:
"Song-Fong-Lo was painted on a saucer
Wing-Tee-Wee was on a fan
Song-Fong-Lo he came across her
On the dressing stand.
They both had travelled many miles on the sea
Each gave the other smiles of sweet sympathy
Song-Fong fell in love with Wee ,
Singing tenderly
Wee, please come with me
And let's go back to dreamy lotus land
There 'mid flower fair
I swear to love you, love you
'Neath the magic moon above you
Wee, I love but thee
Just wait and see
That wondrous dream I've planned
I'll leave my saucer
You leave your fan
And let's go back to dreamy lotus land
Wing-Tee-Wee as soon as he had spoken
Came from off her silken fan
In her hurry she was broken
No more can she stand.
Poor little Song-Fong with the tears in his eye
Stands all alone and wishes he too could die
As he dreams the dreams gone by
Each night he must sigh,
Wee, please come with me
And let's go back to dreamy lotus land
There 'mid flower fair
I swear to love you, love you
'Neath the magic moon above you
Wee, I love but thee
Just wait and see
That wondrous dream I've planned
I'll leave my saucer
You leave your fan
And let's go back to dreamy lotus land"
