Mother: You may come.
Children:
We're very glad to hear of it,
Hear of it, hear of it.
We're very glad to hear of it,
And may we come in red?
Mother: Red is for soldiers.
Children:
We're very sorry to hear of it,
Hear of it, hear of it.
We're very sorry to hear of it,
And may we come in blue?
Mother: Blue is for sailors.
Children:
We're very sorry to hear of it,
Hear of it, hear of it.
We're very sorry to hear of it,
And may we come in yellow?
Mother: Yellow is for jealousy.
Children:
We're very sorry to hear of it,
Hear of it, hear of it.
We're very sorry to hear of it,
And may we come in pink?

Children:
We're very sorry to hear of it,
Hear of it, hear of it.
We're very sorry to hear of it,
And may we come in white?

Children:
We're very sorry to hear of it,
Hear of it, hear of it.
We're very sorry to hear of it,
And may we come in black?
