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! |
