• Solomon Grundy,
    Born on a Monday,
    Christened on Tuesday,
    Married on Wednesday,
    Took ill on Thursday,
    Grew worse on Friday,
    Died on Saturday,
    Buried on Sunday.
    That was the end of
    Solomon Grundy.


    Solomon Grundy, born on a Monday,
    Christened on a stark and stormy Tuesday,
    Married on a gray and grisly Wednesday,
    Took ill on a mild and mellow Thursday,
    Grew worse on a bright and breezy Friday,
    Died on a gay and glorious Saturday,
    Buried on a baking, blistering Sunday
    That was the end of Solomon Grundy.


    Solomon Grundy born on Monday,
    Went to school on Tuesday,
    Grew a beard on Wednesday,
    Expelled on Thursday,
    Protested on Friday,
    Arrested on Saturday,
    Drafted on Sunday;
    And this was the end of Solomon Grundy.
