With Apologies to W. S. Gilbert
Bounce on, oh basketball, Bounce on!
Ob, mocking basketball Bounce on !
Beyond my eager grasp, then fall! What, though I am a paltry guard? What, though I am with anger jarred?
What, though I am with bruises scarred? Never yon mind.
Bounce on.
Bounee on, oh basketball. Bounce on!
Elusive o’er the gym Bounce on !
In vain across the floor T skim ( ?) It’s true my goal seems far away.
It’s true I have no luck today. It’s true I’ve made a rotten play
Never you mind! Bounce on 1
(It bounces on.)
