Happy Birthday Mr. Nobody

Mr. Nobody
Author Unknown




I know a funny little man,


As quit as a mouse,


Who does the mischief that is done


In everybody's house!


There's no one ever sees his face,


And yet we all agree


That every plate we break was cracked


By Mr. Nobody





`Tis he who always tears our books,


Who leaves the door ajar,


He pulls the buttons from our shirts,


And scatters pine afar;


That squeaking door will always squeak,


For, prithee, don't you see,


We leave the oiling to be done


By Mr. Nobody






The finger marked upon the door


By none of us are made;


We never leave the blind unclosed,


To let the curtains fade.


The ink we never spill; the boots


That lying round you. See


Are not our boots


they all belong


To Mr. Nobody.

This was a fave of my Mom's when I was young. Thanks for the smile.
