There was one who was famed for the number of things He forgot when he entered the ship: His umbrella, his watch, all his jewels and rings, And the clothes he had bought for the trip. He had forty-tow boxes all carefully packed, With his name painted clearly on each; But since he omitted to mention the fact, They were all left behind on the beach. He came as a Baker; but owned, when too late- And it drove the poor Bellman half mad- He could only bake Bridecake -for which, I may state, No materials were to be had. I came as the Baker on this escapade, I knead the dough, but I can't look after the bread, The Banker does it instead, And although I never feel afraid, Somehow I know It could be the single worst mistake I've ever made, To come as the Baker on this escapade.
