Uncle Joe is very sick,
What shall we send him?
Three good wishes,

Three good kisses,
And a box of choc'late.
What shall we send it in?

In a piece of paper.
Paper is not good enough.
Then in a golden saucer.

Who shall deliver it?
Let's ask our friend, Matthew*,
Hurry, Matthew*, off you go,

To take our gift to Uncle Joe.
*Replace 'Matthew' with the name of the friend
chosen to deliver the gift.
