THE SANDPIPER 
“That foot race in follies 
Made us all so much sport. 
Would like to have been at a distance, 
To receive the radio’s report. 
“There was so much dust 
In the race-track’s path 
We came down to the beach 
To take a good bath. 
“All the birds in the band 
Did their work very well 
Also the Bobolink and Grackles 
Who had charge of the hotel. 
“Would like to have been in the race, 
Believe I could have set them a pace, 
But the old Eagle insisted 
That I help out the Police.”
