B
When you
F#

had left our pirate fold,
F#
We tried to raise our spirits faint,
B
According to our custom old,
C#
F#
With quip and quibble quaint.
B
But all in vain the quips we heard,
A#
F#

We lay and sobbed upon the rocks,

Un til to somebody occurred
B
A startling paradox.
A paradox!
A paradox!
A most ingenious paradox!
F#
B
We quips and quibbles heard in flocks,
But none to beat this paradox!
F#
ha, ha, ha, ha!
B
A paradox, a paradox,
A perky new paradox!
F#
B
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!

We knew your taste for curious quips,
B

E
For some ridiculous reason,
to which, however,
However, I have no desire
B
to be disloyal.
Some personal authority,
I don't know who,
Very likely the Astronomer Royal
E
Has decided that although
for such a beastly month as February
A
Twenty -eight days of the rule are plenty,
One year in every four,
His days should be reckoned
E
as nine and twenty.
Through some singular coincidence,
I shouldn't be surprised
if we're going to the agency
A
of an ill -natured fairy.
You are the victim of this clumsy arrangement,
having been born in Leap Year
on the 29th of February.

And so, by a simple arithmetical pro cess,

Though you have lived twenty -one years,
yet if we go by birthdays,

F#
Yet reckoning by my natal day

a most ingenious paradox!
