SONG OF THE DEVIL YORKIE.
As sung by the dogs on the other side of the fence.
He’s just so unbelievably evil.
He’s just so inconceivably bad.
In every cotton boll, he’s the weevil.
His machinations drive us quite mad.
The things he says cannot be forgotten,
And to forgive them would be a crime.
He’s just so unbelievably,
Inconceivably
Rotten
All of the time!
SONG.
Did you really think I wouldn’t?
Do you really think I won’t?
If you’re underestimating me,
Then don’t.
Just don’t.
By the time you say I shouldn’t,
It’s too late: I’ll have begun.
By the time you’re through berating me
I’m done—
Quite done.
COMMON FOOD WARNING LABELS.
THE END.
THE POWERED LIFE.

The Transcription.THE ROYAL MESS.
Transcribed below. The typewriter is a 1949 Royal Quiet De Luxe with Elite type. In all other respects it is identical to the 1949 Quiet De Luxe with Pica type we met earlier, but of course it is necessary to have both.

A PERTINENT QUESTION.
Transcribed below. The typewriter is a Smith Corona DeVille 80, probably made in the 1980s. Since Smith Corona produced a bewildering variety of not-quite-identical electronic typewriters, this is the only unit of its model in the Typewriter Database so far.
