The Little Japan#e. Tho*t> Ib a little Islnud Iti the far eastern sea, Where dwell a little people, They call the Japauee. And oh how'patriotic, These little devils are To go np in the Arctic And fight the Russian Bar. They have licked them at Port Arthur, And also Chemulpo, They show their superiority, Against the Northern foe. ' The Jap he is out numbered, But that doesn't always conut, For he’s made of red hot thunder, And like lightning gets about. Yes the Russian Bar will be sorry Ere tills little fray lias ceased, For its enough to make them worry, T.iose little Japanecse.
