Miss Lotte

That Miss Lotte who was nuts
I mean completely round the bend
She wears socks on her hands
And waves them at her friends
She’d wear her dress on backwards
And odd shoes on each foot
It was definitely more than loose,
A screw was missing from her nut.

That Miss Lotte who was loopy
I mean completely round the twist
She said she new double dutch
And could converse with the fish
She ate her dinner in the bath
And drank the water from the loo
While all around her said she was
Completely crackers and cuckoo

That Miss Lotte who was balmy
I mean ga ga, crazy and mad
Told the children they could riot
In the lessons that they had
Said they should dance on the table
Shout out and have a laugh
But they stood open mouthed and knowing
She was noodle brained and daft

That Miss Lotte who is bog-eyed
Is jam-headed and mungo-jerried,
Over the rainbow, out of her mind,
Tap-doo-lally or wholly wellied.
She is actually very kind
Although not her only feature
That Miss Lotte who is bananas
Is the world’s greatest teacher.
