Happy Thursday

Happy Thursday to you,
Happy Thursday to you,
Happy Thursday, dear Alice,
Happy Thursday to you.


“Who is Alice?” asked Mother.

“Alice is somebody that nobody can see,” said Frances. “And that is why she does not have a birthday. So I am singing Happy Thursday to her.”

“Today is Friday,” said Mother.

“It is Thursday for Alice,” said Frances.
