Kick the Boorie (can)

Jabberwocky

It started with the count to ten

And all your pals go hide and then

You look up and take a gamble

Where to start the searching ramble

Then the finding and the scramble 

To be the first to reach the jail

Then on again with the travail

Till all the boys found to a man

Except if one did kick the can

Then you lose and count to ten

And off you go to search again.
