Ozone
Fun, II - 16th September 1865
| Did you hear of the use of ozone, ohone? It's the best disinfectant that's known, they've shown. |
|
| Though it doesn't appear To my mind very clear, |
|
| Yet we'll sing of the praise of ozone, ohone! Oh! we'll sing of the praise of ozone! |
|
| I don't quite see how it can act — in fact In a room where a hundred are packed it's lacked: |
|
| In a tenanted place Not a ghost of a trace |
|
| Of the gas that is known as ozone is shown, Not a trace of this useful ozone! |
|
| But if on Ben Nevis's top you stop, You will find of this gas there's a crop — but drop |
|
| To the regions below, And experiments show |
|
| Not a trace of this useful ozone is known, Not a trace of this useful ozone! |
|
| In a desert 'twill cover the ground, all round, And up in the clouds I'll be bound it's found; |
|
| But oh, it's a pity That here in the city |
|
| The divvle a drop of ozone is blown, Not a drop of this useful ozone! |
|
| t's because I'm an ignorant chap, mayhap, And I daresay I merit a slap or rap, |
|
| But it's never, you see, Where it's wanted to be, |
|
| So I call it Policeman Ozone — it's known By my friends as Policeman Ozone! |
