The Cupboard

Walter de la Mare

I know a little cupboard，

With a teeny tiny key，

And theres a jar of Lollipops

For me， me， me.

It has a little shelf， my dear，

As dark as dark can be，

And theres a dish of Banbury Cakes

For me， me， me.

I have a small fat grandmamma，

With a very slippery knee，

And shes Keeper of the Cupboard，

With the key， key， key.

And when Im very good， my dear，

As good as good can be，

Theres Banbury Cakes， and Lollipops

For me， me， me.
